Hi, I am interested in purchasing the K8V-SE-Deluxe. I have a few questions:
0. In general, is this a good board to buy into? Or should I just get a
socket A? I want a Mobo/CPU/RAM that is cost effective. What Mobo/CPU/RAM
would be suggested? I like the K8V because it seems to be able to attach 6 x
IDE/ATA devices + 4 x SATA.
1. should i purchase this board this time in the market? Should i wait? I
know they are moving across to socket 939/940 and the 754 seems to be a
limited form factor. I dont want to spend money on the 954 and later realise
i made a mistake and should have waited. But i guess everything moves fast
in the pc market. You can wait all your life. Anytime is a good time to get
in based on that premise?
2. I was interested in purchasing 1 x 512MB DDRRAM A-Data PC4000 500MHz.
Wouldnt this cause problems on the K8V since that mainboard is only rated to
PC3200, not PC4000 ? What RAM is recommended? Yes I might possibly like to
overclock.
3. Is this board good for overclocking?
4. Also where can i check up on the latest revision of this mainboard? I
don't want to be caught out in purchasing an old revision when a new one is
out.
Thanks for any help!
