Which DDR Motherboard?

[cycleman77]

I'm stuck. Both the Asus A7M266 and the Epox 8K7A seem really good. I know there is a big price difference, but I have always had an Asus motherboard and I have never had a single problem.
Is there a review out there that compares these two MBs?
Who has either of these boards and what do you think?

 

[wfbberzerker]

there has been an ongoing debate about which board is better, but the popular opinion seems to be that the epox board is your best bet. this is also the board im going with for my upcoming system.

I've heard MSI K7 Master has done well. But for your choices, the Epox 8K7A would be my choice.

What about staility and documentation? Asus MBs have great stability and give really good documentation with there MBs.

I've never had an Epox before and if I buy the Epox board, I want to know what I'm getting into.

I've been reading tons of reviews regarding the Epox, and all of them say that the 8k7a is incredibly stable, even when overclocked, which is one of the toughest things you can do to a motherboard.

I'd go with the Epox.

I went through the same decision. Decided on Epox.

Epox is a good choice, or the Shuttle AK31 Rev2.0. That is also a supurb mobo.
