Soyo KT600 Dragon+ vs. Biostar M7NCDP (NF2)

At newegg.com they have the Soyo for $96 and the Biostar for $57 after rebate...I'm looking at these two b/c I don't need the raid, etc...I'll do a little o/c'ing but I don't need to hit 200fsb at this point...I guess my question is: which chipset is "better"? I've been using via boards for awhile and have had little probs but I have no problem trying something else...if the performance is negligible then it seems I should go for the Biostar...any thoughts or other low-cost recommendations?
 
If something works for you I would stay with it, I built a NF2 cause of all the talk and it run good other than not being able to run defrag or scan other than in safe mode, It run good till I put a program on it then nothing but lockups and blue screens,
 
Both are good. I have built many of both. Not being able to defrag w/nforce2 is not so, possibly you have other problems. nforce2 has agp/pci lock, and overclocks better though. KT (VIA) mainboards are very stable nowdays, nice drivers from version 4.42-4.49 i would say. Most KT600 boards have either dip switches, or jumpers which can be a pain to work with in a smallish case.
