So my question is, the Epox "EP-9NDA3+" is OOS at Newegg and it was my first choice for a mobo. I liked everything about it, good package included, high FSB OC, decent price, good service, low # of bugs. But since it is OOS, I dunno what to get. People seem to like the MSI Neo2 Platinum but it seems to be a pain to get working, and since this is my first build, I'm not so sure about it. The VIA boards don't seem to be a good OCer and since I wanna hit 2.6, I'm not so sure about those either. Anyone have a suggestion???

And yes the SATA II is just for bragging rights >_<
 
Or wait, maybe I should get the Value 3200 ram (just read Zebo's thread)...so anyone have any suggestions???

get the mushkin gig pack...its like $130 or so. aso for the mobo, try the MSI NEO board
 
Is the muskin higher quality? The cost is the same, $130 for either...

By MSI Neo, do you mean the Neo2 platinum? Since I am going 939..
