Are Genuine Intel boards ok?

[damocles]

I can get an Intel D815EEA cheaply, anyone if this vboard will be ok? or if Intel boards o/clock

Intel boards are supposed to be pretty stable. I think thay are used a lot in servers. They are pricy though. Do they overclock? Well, I'll let you answer that one. Intel clock locks their cpu's so you can't overclock them (with a multiplyer anyway), so do you think their boards are anything but auto-sence? I would have to say the probably don't overclock to well. But if your going to use it for a server or something, it would be a very good board.

It's a nice board if you want stability and don't mind the mediocre graphics and sound capabilities. I have one in a server that runs 24x7 and it works great. I'm having some boot problems with one I'm running in a workstation, but overall it's an OK board if you can get a good price. Not for overclockers, howerver.

Intel mobo's are known for their top-notch stability, .. but they won't o/c at all.. so if you need to overclock don't bother, but if not then it should be fine..

Intel boards are great for everday use or business apps. They are not a go fast Mobo.
