from what i've read, i believe the epox's perform faster and can tweak the cpu voltage higher. the ak max is 1.85v.... if you're lucky to get a decent epox 8hka+ (alot have boot problems or arrived doa).

my ak31a/xp 1600 should arrive monday. can't wait!! :)

I swear I answered this question like a week ago either here or the CPU/OC forum. Anyway, it fits for me. No mods or anything. It was pretty tight with the capacitor to the right and to a lesser degree with the chipset fan further down. I have heard of people needing to mod theirs to fit over at the AMDMB.com forums, so it may be a hit-or-miss type of thing.
