Question: Which is the best i815 mobo to buy?

[djchemistry]

I'm wondering if you guys can help a me out here. My BX board went the way of the dinosaurs and I need to buy a new motherboard. I want to buy a mobo with real 133mhz support but am clueless as to which i815 is the best. I've read Anand's review of the Asus Cusl2 and Tom's guide on a couple other boards, but neighter compares the Asus against the Abit against the MSI. So what's a guy with $200 bucks supposed to do? Any help will be great. Thanks guys.

Asus CUSL2 is the way to go ,lots of good reviews .

I think the Asus is better design, with those pair of CNRs. I believe it also has the 1mhz increments or something similar. It also has the asynchronous memory settingsm - P3 @ 100 can use PC66 or Celeron @ 66 can use PC133 memory. AGP PRO what ever that does.. Won't be here till end of month 7/31 & after. Abit is decent too but not as much features.

The Asus CUSL2 is here in stock in UK,but you are from the US,anyway great board for overclocking,regular BIOS updates & rock stable so you cannot really go wrong with this board.

Not entirely, I'm ordering the MSI 815E PRO (6337) motherboard. I have been very happy with my BX Master... Just waiting for OnVia to get them in stock.
