Motherboard suggestions

[golfcart]

Hi all. I am in the market for a new board for my xp1700. I will be doing heavy overclocking so stability and options are a must. I have tried the A7V-333-x which I really really liked except the PCI bus was not locked at 33mhz. This caused HD corruption at very high FSB speeds. After that, I decided to buy an 8RDA+ which I absolutely can't stand. I don't know if I got a defect or if it just can't take the overclocking or what but I don't like it. It takes 3 tries to get it to boot, it doesn't feel stable and the onboard lan crapped out. So anyways, help me pick out a new board

No Epox 8RDA+
No Asus A7N8X

I'm thinking maybe another Asus board or an Abit. It will need at least 2 volts for the cpu and must be very stable above 200mhz FSB. Onboard stuff makes no difference to me but lan is nice to have. Thanks for any ideas

Maybe the Abit NF7-M or NF7-S board... Heard that it's supposed to overclock pretty nicely.

if u don't want any of those 2..... i would go with either the MSI K7N2-DELTA-ILSR or ABIT NF7-S rev 2.0

oh yeah, forgot about the MSI K7N2-Delta... Nice board.

Yeah, I like the MSI, too. In fact I just got a MSI K7N2G today from Newegg. I wanted something with on-board graphics because I'm just going to use it for another cow for my FaD herd and for playing around. I should have it running this weekend.
