I presently have 2 Shuttle AK31 motherboards, 1 being version 2.0 and the other being 3.1. Of course, the KT266A memory bandwidth is much nicer on the 3.1. I will be getting an Abit KR7A-Raid when it is available from my usual distributor.

my gigabyte kicks ass..
the only 2 things it could change is 4 ddr slots, and volt range of 1.5~2.20 would be great :)

MSI K7T266 Pro kicks ass. I have the first release and after looking @ the specs of the RV2, the first one actually looks a bit better (except the new one supports better processers)

I like it. Seems pretty stable so far. I haven't bumped the fsb up much yet, just to 166 I believe.

Its favorite 266a motherboard!

Hands down the two best are the Abit Kr7 and the Epox 8kha+.

But I have to vote for the Epox! Great board, very cheap and a GREAT overclocker!

EPox 8KHA+ wins the kt266a battle hands down any day.......:)

Especially running an XP1500 @ 10*170 (1.7GHz) rock solid at only 1.8vCore!

Mmmm well because it's the best I've ever used.. mind you, the best I've used I'm gonna say the Epox 8k3a+. Although the Abit KX7-333R is better when modded.
