[Nagasama]

hey fellas. christmas is right around the corner,
been thinkin about goin up a few steps with my mobo. need one that is a strong, stable overclocker will let me juice the ram. looking to reach/break 3.0 (dreaming?...maybe, but what would the world be without dreams? hahaha)

yeah, i have heard those are great. BUT i've also read that they have a few bugs (in the bios, maybe?). or maybe it was the 590 chipset. i can't remember. but this one is definitely an option. but price...ouch!

wasnt the major flaw in nforce 590 boards the lack of strong stable overcloocking?

 

[lancec2c30]

that would kinda defeat the point.

i know that fatalities are a little overpriced but aren't they supposed to be very good overclockers?

DFI man! You can't go wrong with DFI mobo's!
Im saying this since i have a DFI board and it's a killer OCer!

Not so sure if it comes in the am2 socket though, check their site!

i believe dfi does make an am2 board. i think i have read something about it somewhere, i think on an overclocking website, but they could have been talking about the 939 socket...
i also read this article about a foxconn (sp?) board...anybody know anything about them?

 

[Nagasama]

i'll also look into the fatality

DFI makes two different AM2 boards, The Ultra-D Is at like 195 USD and then like The infinity which is like 105 USD.
