Help me pick a new board

[TechPrince]

I have a Tiger MP with 2 1500 MP's. I am selling the board and eventually the processors. I want an inepesive board that i can overclock on with a water-cooler and that preferably has ata-100. I don't plan on keeping this board for very long. I just want something that will run until the hammer stuff comes out. I don't know if I will resell the board or not it depends on my financial status when everything is released. So if anyone could just give me some suggestions on what to get tell me.

Check newegg's refurbished section. They had the shuttle ak31a for only $49 shipped (half of what I paid new). It should run well with an unlocked xp at 138-140 fsb, but no higher.

I would go for the EPOX 8KHA+ one great Board! (8KHA+ gets My vote 100%)

yes, the shuttle board doesn't o/c well compared to the epox. Especially with water cooling.

I took your advice and looked at the Epox boards. Which would be better, the 8KHA+ or the 8K7A+(RAID). They are both the same price right now so if you could get back to me on this soon I can order it and be all set. Also, i'm looking for a really good water pump to use for the water cooler, and a water block i had found was really good but, i can't remember who it was made by. It was a copper block with spirals inside it so the water absorbed heat better. If anyone knows who this is made by please let me know so i can buy it. THe same company also made a block that had an acrylic cover and was a spiral.
Thanks again for your help. bump.

I would go for the EPOX 8KHA+ if you dont need the raid
