Could someone please advice me, which of these three chipsets ofers the best performance.....
nforce3 150, K8T800 or the K8M800?
I do know bout the nforce3 250 and nforce3 ultra, but please humour me!
 
Amount nForce3 150, K8T800, K8M800: K8T800 is the best

Amount nForce3 150, K8T800, K8M800, nForce3 250, nForce3 Ultra: nForce3 Ultra/nForce3 250 is the best
 
If you're scraping the bottom of the barrel, both of those chipsets have problems with certain types of RAM, so you'd be better off with the SiS 755 chipset.

nForce3 250 and nForce3 Ultra is the best.

the difference: nForce3 250 is for socket 754 and nForce3 Ultra is for socket 939

Those should be the same as the 755 and newer 755FX, but with graphics added. I guess as long as the board offers an AGP slot they should work the same once an AGP card is installed.
