ok, this gigabyte K8N is about to be thrown in the trash.
ive had more problems with this board then any ive ever owned.
so, is there any new nforce 3 motherboards coming out soon as i do not want a via based board.
Has anyone tried the leadtek nforce3 board yet?
anyone know the eta on the nforce3 250's?

Leadtek apparently makes a pretty good board. He's using the 754 FX chip, but they make that board for the 940 if that is what you are using.

no disrespect dude but try staying away from them off brand wanna be MB's and try your self one of them NF7's or the epox 8RDA+ those two boards are proven to run verry strong and stable. hell you want fsb? i got 492fsb right out the box on my NF7!!! oh well just my 2 cents... good luck man make it a good choice:D

Unfortunately he may have just a bit of trouble making his processor fit in a socket A board:eek: I've been waiting quite impatiently to Jump onto the 64 bit wagon, sure hope someone releases a sorted board soon!

I know its not what you wanna hear, but just try to be patient with these boards. THey are on an infant chipset and the bugs will be worked out soon. Until then, if you do want a new board, I heard the Leadtek and Chaintech were alright boards.
