hello,

Im ordering tonight my motherboard, but Im stuck between two boards, abit an8 fatal1ty nforce 4 ultra (skt 939) pci-e and epox ep-9npa+ ultra nforce4 ultra (skt 939) pci-e, between these boards, what would be better for gaming, Im not going to be overclocking so I need the best perfomer to go with an amd 3200 venice skt 939 and Crucial 1GB DDR PC3200 Ballistix.?
 
I heard by many that the Epox is better I think I posted the same question with the same boards and that was the answear I received.

ASUS A8V DELUXE
PLEXTOR PX-716SA
AMD 64 +3200
(4) 512MB XMS CORSAIR PC3200 400 MHZ
BFG 6800 GEFORCE ULTRA OC (AGP)
(2) 74GB RAPTORS
(1) WD 120GB
Tsunami Dream Case
 
If you are not OCing, the plane jane AN8 may be better for you.
I have only good things to say about Abit. I had some bad history with Epox a couple of years ago. I hear they have gotten a lot better, but my money would still go to Abit, for reliability and performance. ( In truth, there just isn't much performance difference between boards using the Nforce chipsets)
 
I like Abit, but I refuse to buy ANY product that might result in a fatality! LOL
