View Full Version : Best PCI-X + BTX mobo for OCing?
What is the best PCI-X and BTX compatible motherboard for overclocking? (Flexible dividers, wide frame of bus speed, wide frame of vcore)
I read the new asus boards were pretty good, but for overclocking I heard abit's uguru is the way to go. Still remember there is the overclocking lock.

I think bh2k is probably right given the limited info we currently have...

THe DFI 925X-T2 can deliver strong 2.5v vmem voltage and has 533 3:4 memory option.
The Asus P5AD2 delivers weak 2.2v, I am yet to see the DDR600 option working on the P5AD2
I am yet to play with the Abit AA8 but I will have it soon.

Ay Fugger. What BIOS are you using for the Asus P5AD2? My board only goes to 2.1v, but I managed to get it at 340 at the 3:4 ratio (on a 2.8C overclocked).
I am also using Centon Memory with Elpida chips.... weren't you able to run your Centon's at lower timings? or were those the Micron chips?
Cool fugger. Pls post your results in another thread about the Abit AA8, maybe you could write an XS review on it? (Motherboards section...) ??
