I have been reading almost everything I can find on the web, alot here 
on the 939 boards, specifically the Asus, MSI, Gigabyte ones. I have a 90nm 3200+ 939 chip on its way. I just cannot decide what one to get. Im not really looking to OC. I am mainly looking for the following,
1. stability and compatibity
2. speed
3. options
Here is what I plan on using for the rest of the system.
- Memory - OCZ 3500 2x512 - newegg is down so do not have specific on memory. However I tried reading the sites for compataiblity and have yet to see if OCZ memory will work in any of them.
- OCZ 470w powerstream PS
- Lian Li custom case
- Geforce 6800 or 6800GT
- Seagate 160g 7200rpm Sata HD
I would prefer to stick to the Nforce 3 chipset if at all possible which at this point may not be. I was really hoping DFI would release their 939 board as you can tell from my other posts. I have till about the end of Oct. before I need the system finished. If nothing else releases by then, what would some of your recommendations then be?
I have toyed with the idea of sending the chip back and getting a socket 754 and the DFI board, but kinda dont want to do that.
Thanks for any opinions, help, being yelled at....
