I'll be building a high-end P4 3GHz gaming rig soon & considering following 3 mobos. I'm mainly after over-clocking ability, but also good features & reliability.
Asus P4C800-E Deluxe
Gigabyte GA-8KNXP
Abit IC7G Max3

Which would you take & why?

I went with the Gigabyte last month when I did my upgrade. I wanted something that was stable, as I have no plan to overclock so I can't help in that area. But the 8KNXP has all sorts of features.

DerwenArtos12,

I was checking out the LanParty 875Pro on DFI's web site - DAMN! That's one impressive mobo!
Thanks!
I think I might go with the Lan Party. I've still got to read some reviews though as far as stability goes.
Do you own this board?
How is it?

Thanks!

EPoX 4PCA3+ Revision 2. Easily the best priced 875 board with the best overclocking options.

It is pretty isn't it. I do not yet own this board but I do own the NFII and have built two computers with the 875Pro. One of the poeple I built one of these for had me set him up with a watercooling system for cpu/nb/gpu/hdd and he has the thing runnign completely stable and completly quiet at 1000mhz fsb and the other has his clocked to a meager 900mhz fsb on air cooling with the thermalright sp-94. They are both using the sata and have had only one problem so far and that is because the one on air cooling is an idiot and voided his waraty by trying to add more hdd's himself. the one on air cooling has 1gb of corsair 3500 adn the one with water cooling has 2gb of Corsair 4000 both xms dual chanel.

DerwenArtos12,

The guy with the air-cooled 875Pro who voided his warranty - what happened?
Is there something I should know about SATA & OCing?

Thanks!
