Looking for a new board

hondatuner · 06-January-05, 10:40 PM

I think my old one has given in, so I'm looking for a new board to go along with my 2600 mobile. What are your recomendations.

Let me be the first fanboy to speak out...

Abit NF7-S version 2.0

Great overclocker for some, for others, a rock solid mobo.

Thanks that'll be the one, anyone has a better idea.

EDIT: I've got DDR400 will that work with this board

Depends on your needs and your budget. If you are really strapped for cash and don't need SATA capability, the Shuttle AN35/N Ultra is a fine replacement.
Of course, although I would rather have the NF7-S personally, I am VERY happy with my Shuttle.

I'm not to tight on my budget, I just want to make sure everything works. Also I'm not a major overclocker. So that may bring about some more choices

NF7-S, thats what I have been using. Hasnt missed a beat. Has SATA, good overclocker.

I would still go with the NF7-S if I wasn't much of an OCer and wasn't strapped for money still. Been using it (OCed) for almost a year and I haven't had any problems besides the northbridge HSF giving out but that was an easy replacement.

Will the shuttle and abit work with dual-channel DDR, something like Corsair TwinX.

What's going on with the gigabyte?

Yes.

Just make sure, if you go Shuttle, that it is the AN35N-ULTRA. The non-ultra is not dual channel.

I own both the Shuttle and the Abit. They are both great boards.

The gigabyte is doing great, but i'm building a seconed computer right now.

Also thanks for the advice about both boards
