Default GA-7N400 Pro Or Abit NF7-S v2.0

What board is better?
I think that the gigabyte is as it has more stuff on the board 4 ram slots and better bundled software.
It also has very simular perfomance to the the Abit.
My friend says get the Abit.. As it has better overclocking performance.. how good is the gigabyte at overclocking?
What would be the best to buy?
They are both simulary priced..

Gigabyte: http://www.giga-byte.com/MotherBoard...N400%20Pro.htm

Abit: http://www.abit-usa.com/products/mb/...ries=1&model=6

Cheers.

I think Zenn and BA have the Gigabyte, and seem happy with the overclocking, I'm sure they will let ya know.

I like the Abit, Most will do 218-220FSB out of the box, and up to 250 with Mods. Mine went 219FSB stock with a XP2400+ and over 2.4ghz

The Epox RDA3+ is another top choice, it seems alot of the Nforce2 Ultra based boards can reach 220 FSB.
Kayin says the Chaintech is another great Overclocker too.

I like the Abit between those two...

I've heard lots of good things about the DFI Infinity, but IMHO Abit's the way to go. I have an Abit Intel board and it's excellent.
