Propane Posted March 31, 2003 Posted March 31, 2003 Which is the best mobo for OCing a AMD 2100+ Right now im looking at the gigabyte GA7VXP Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
vyroburn Posted March 31, 2003 Posted March 31, 2003 THe abit at7max 2 is nice for occing then there is the Gigabyte GA-7VAXP is a very nice board also..... both overclock well in my experience.... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
alechko88 Posted March 31, 2003 Posted March 31, 2003 no!!!!!!! the the GigaByte is bad for OCing! heres why: 1) no PCI/AGP frequency lock 2) no Multiplier changing in bios, only dip switch, and you can not have a multiplier set to more then 12.5(unless its default is higher) 3) VIA KT400, we all know that nForce 2 is way better for OCing, it can be stable in FSB above 200 which is hard to get with the vaxp... Â now although the AT-MAX2 is also a VIA KT400 board it is alot better than the vaxp and it is great for overclocking!! although the best mobo fot OCing is the abit nf-7 or the Epox 8RDA+ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
andrusk Posted March 31, 2003 Posted March 31, 2003 a7n8x deluxe is the best, theres little more to say than that. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mxrider623 Posted March 31, 2003 Posted March 31, 2003 yeah the A7N8X is a very good mobo. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Propane Posted March 31, 2003 Posted March 31, 2003 Does asus still make the delux? If so where can i get it. I found the one thats not delux at tigerdirect.com Also whats the highest XP cpu it will take Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mxrider623 Posted March 31, 2003 Posted March 31, 2003 (edited) ya they still make a deluxe but a lot of places are sold out of them and I think it can handle the highest barton core which i think is the 3000+. ill tryand find a place that has some Deluxe left. there you go but they might not be there for long! http://www.directron.com/a7n8x.html Edited March 31, 2003 by mxrider623 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Propane Posted April 1, 2003 Posted April 1, 2003 Thanks for the link. Is there anything wrong with the one that is not deluxe? What are the differences? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
alechko88 Posted April 1, 2003 Posted April 1, 2003 the Asus A7N8X is NOT the best mobo.... why is it the best?! becasue the word asus is written on the box?! the Chaintec ha got same features.... the Epox is WAY WAY better OC'er the MSI has a better Bundle what you want more? and u do think that the asus is the ebst mobo than say why... dont just..."asus best... me stupid" say why? stable? pefrmance? well no... that will be the epox  and one other thing!! i chalange any one with an ASUS A7N8X and an AXP2400+ for an OC battle! i will be OCing with my friends(he's an OC'er too) Epox 8RGA+ and an AXP2400+ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
andrusk Posted April 1, 2003 Posted April 1, 2003 He just asked which was better he didnt ask for reasons, if he asked for reasons we would have given him some. It sounds to me like your a little bitter that you bought an epox instead of an a7n8x, how dare you attack us for giving our opinions ! you want reasons, ill give you reasons, it benches better than any of the other boards, its as stable as a rock, it has a mountain of overclocking options, and there are tons of people that agree with me on this. you say epox is better?!? show me a benchmark where the epox has beaten the a7n8x dont just say" me bitter i bought an epox and regret it, me jealous of asus, and me stupid" Case in point there are a lot more people who think the a7n8x is a better board. Â besides all this they perform pretty much the same heres some graphs here, besides the epox doesnt have sata or raid capabilities Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Propane Posted April 1, 2003 Posted April 1, 2003 can someone tell me if the delux is better than the not delux and to make alechko88 happy give reasons... lol Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
andrusk Posted April 1, 2003 Posted April 1, 2003 yes the deluxe is better than not deluxe, it has better audio, sata w/raid, and dual lan. i think those are the only differences though. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
