MSI K8N Neo2 Platinum and 3200+

[DaFinn]

Building a new rig for my brother as x-mas gift. I plan on getting the Athlon 64 3200+ socket 939, but been wondering about the mobo. The MSI seems to have everything, anybody have any experience from this mobo? Any other recommendations?

Link to the motherboard.

+ 2 sticks of Transcend 400Mhz DDR ofcourse...

Everything else I can use from current system.

Apparently MSI released a new revision of their board in November which overclocks even better than the system Anand reviewed. Saw this on Extremesystems.

I think this is the board above... Not sure though. I found another model that's older and without wireless.

I used this board for my first build four weeks ago. No problems. Love the dual ethernet ports.

Built FX53 back in July when first batch came out. Great stable board with all the goodies.

I ordered winchester 3500+ and same board this past weekend for another build.

Where does it say that the board has wireless capability? Maybe i missed something on the specs that you linked. thanks.

Hmm, actually the full name of the board I'm getting is: K8N NEO2 PLATINUM 54G
It comes w. 802.11g wlan according to retailers description... Whether it's integrated or some add in card I dunno.
