what is the best slot 1 motherboard out there?

Please respond.

The only one you can still get now is the Abit SH6.

ASUS P3B-F was rock solid.

<< ASUS P3B-F was rock solid. >>


so true!

 

[LXi]

What does it mean if you can't even get it?

 

[AndyHui]

ASUS P3B-F and P3V4X.

 

[oldfart]

Another vote for ASUS P3B-F.

bx chipset: abit bx133 raid
via chipset: asus p3v4x

Heh, bit vague that question. Best for what? For decoration purposes or for use as a nice epoxy dartboard you can't go wrong with an A-Trend 6260 😉

P3B-F is also my favourite for single procs, Asus slot 1 dualies are/where overpriced IMHO. If you need/want extra features like on board sound or raid look somewhere else though.

And if you are into exotica: the Asus P3C series with Intel's less than stellar 820 chipset and RDRAM could be an option now that RDRAM is more affordable. The standard single proc nothing onboard variety cost around 45$ here in Germany...

At any rate I'd not spend much on it. No more coppermine CPUs soon...

I have two early Abit BH6's that have been running solid for a long time.

I have a P3B-F, and while it seems to be very stable, it is nothing compared to a Soyo SY-6BA+100.

I had both running in my house at the same place in time a year or so back, and the 6BA+100 was a better board IMHO.

It overclocked my PIII700 FAR higher than the P3B-F and was easily as stable. I loved both but the better overclocker had it's place in my own system over the P3B-F.

The MSI BX Master was the best, but its gone. The Soyo (above) is excellent, and still around if you look
hard.

Heh. Worst motherboard I ever owned (for 3 days). I wont go into the details now, but that thing had some serious issues.

 

[boyRacer]

Wow 440BX galore!

The Abit BX133 was a S370 board... but that one kick ass too...

...but another vote for the P3B-F... i had that board but I had to sell my setup... i still have its little brother though... the P2B-F. 🙂

 

[e_mc_2]

Asus P2B-2 is a very good baord.

 

[LarryJoe]

Soyo 6BA+IV


but I am biased🙂

 

[Kanly]

Two 6ba+IV's running strong here.
600E@850
700E@980

Rock-solid boards that are now no longer in production. 🙁

If Powerleap actually comes out with a Tulatin adapter that works, these 2 boards might have some new life in them, lol 🙂

BX is [was] King!!!!!! 🙂 🙂


Mwave still sells the 6ba+100.
