I'm probly going to go PCI-E very soon. I have not decided on which card I'm going with so please feel free to list any SLI boards too.


I also currently have an AGP card in my current rig but my 3200+ winchester can't break 2.4ghz on my Epox EP-9NDA3J. I've got 2 gigs of Kingston HyperX PC4000 ram so I'm actually losing out on atleast +100mhz of overclocking without stressing my ram. So any AGP boards that do very well with overclocking would be a huge help also.

Computer right now:

2 gigs of PC4000 Hyper X
3200+ Winchester @ 2.4 ghz (240x10)
X850XT

This will eventually become my girlfriends computer but I want to get a better mobo for this rig so I can get a better OC out of it ^_^ This board croaks w/ the FSB anywhere above 250 no matter what settings.

Looking to get the new ATI/Nvidia gen. and either DFI SLI board or Asus single PCI-E board

The best 939 board with AGP for overclocking is the MSI NEO2-F or MSI NEO2-PLATINUM; the F version is simply the platty board minus firewire and a second NIC.

The only 939 board, as far as i know, with PCIe and AGP is the newish ASRock board, it uses the newish ULI chipset and is supposedly a decent overclocker, though with limited BIOS options.

The best 939 board with PCIe is the DFI Lanparty Ultra-D.
