[mhsu]

Looking for a good motherboard for overclocking and comes w/ these features:

AMD XP Capable
RAID 0,1
UDMA 133
DDR
333 or 400 Mhz Bus

Any suggestions? Thanks

perhaps a hardware raid solution could be looked into?

anyways, you cant go wrong with any nforce2 board

Only the A7N8X Deluxe has RAID and that's SATA only, not IDE. I don't believe the standard A7N8X has RAID at all.

unless you can purchase sata>ide converters for cheap?

The only place I've seen them is Directron, $34 a pop.

WRONG! The best board is the FIC AN19E or C, it's got everything, you can adjust absolutely everything via the bios. I've got the E, and my system is insane. You can check the specs at my rigs page, or ask me any questions you may have.

$29.99 each Don't know what the Directron one includes though, the page loaded the background then stopped.

I'd also say to go with Epox; I've really liked their motherboards; haven't used the nForce2-based one though.
