Should I get a new mobo???

[PlaystAzn]

Right now i have

Asus A7N8X deluxe 2.0
amd barton 2500+ sk-7 air cooled
kingston 512 pc3200 hyperx

I'm thinking about getting another motherboard...maybe the rev 2.0 abit NF7-S

Why? because my MB stinks at overclocking...can't get to 200...cant even get it to 2100mhz

and theres a lot of those bios bugs even though i'm at the latest bios...

like when it's changed to anything remotely high...no boot..i'd have to shut off comp from the back and turn it back on...sucks..

so should i get another MB? and what? I just want to be able to at least get to 200 fsb to max my ram.

holy crap, send that sucka to me, then you can buy a new mobo and not worry about wasting your money since it went to a good cause!

i bet you can get a nice chuck of change for it on the FS/FT forums

And you are increasing the VCore voltage right? I wouldn't be so quick to blame it on the Mobo...

IIRC the Bartons often need come sort of mod to reach 200FSB. I don't think it is the board. If you don't want it sell it. I doubt you will take much of a loss.

Ouch. I'd rather pay the extra 11 bucks for a new one from newegg, in that case.

My A7N8X Deluxe an XP2500 play very nicely together... what's the stepping on your XP2500?
