Yeap i would say so to with the DAP or what ever it gives far more stable voltages.

There are many threads on this subject on the forums, use the search function and im sure you wil find an answer.

Most people swear by the GB 8KNNXP or the Shuttle AN50R for the NF3 chipset, and the Asus K8V Dlx for VIA. The NF3 really shines if you have good cooling(Prommy/Vapo), so you can crank up the CPU speed. For 230-240mhz fsb on air, the K8V Dlx is your choice.

I am being told by everybody the Shuttle NF3 is teh best around. So am going for that one i think...

I hear the Shuttle is the best if you want crazy RAM-clocks, couse it feeds the RAM from the 5v line. Can't get it anywhere in Norway though.

Then there is the Gigabytes that should also be great, and you can get those here.

Impossible to get in the UK also, it can only be done if you import it from the states.

Get the Shuttle from http://www.overclockers.se . They ship to Norway. I cancelled mine as they delayed shipping it too long, but if you can wait im sure its worth it.

Tnx for all answers My A64 3200 are on the way to me from komplett now and a Gigabyte K8N form hwb.. i think im gonna buy a Shuttle later if the gigabyte mobo suck :P

Just out of curiousity, can't somebody just pick up a mobo, stick it in a Global Priority box at the Post Office and mail it? What does Customs do with this stuff? Problems?? You could remove it from the box and leave out all cables and manual, right? Just write " Business Correspondence" on the customs form right??

You mean the one Jason blew up? Of course he did vmod it without testing it. Still, I'd go with the proven leader.

If you want a very fast and reliable board with tons of features, the ASUS K8V is still the best around. It is the SK8V but for the 754 pin CPU's.

I'd stay away from NF3 until the 250 pro comes out and is tested. That is of course unless you are a gambler. Prepare to buy several motherboards (as I did), though in the end I went back to the ASUS K8V.
