I'm looking at a few boards.Because I have a BFG Tech. 6800 Ultra AGP. But not sure which one to get.But here I go.The first one's are MSI K8N Neo2 Platinum nForce3 Ultra and MSI K8N Neo2-F Socket 939 NVIDIA nForce3 Ultra.Whats the difference between the two.All I see is that the Platinum has two lan ports and IEEE 1394.Is that it. And which is better.I can Get the Platinum for $126 and the Neo2-F for $77.I'm having a hard time finding the Platinum.The second one's are the ASUS A8V DELUXE Socket 939 VIA K8T800 Pro and the ABIT AV8 Socket 939 VIA K8T800 Pro or ABIT AV8-3RD EYE VIA K8T800 PRO.I do overclock.But I don't overclock to the extreme.For memory I'll be using OCZ 2GB (2 x 1GB) DDR 400 (PC 3200) Dual Channel Platinum or Patriot 2GB (2 x 1GB) 1 DDR 400 (PC 3200),if I go for two gig.And Patriot 1GB (2 x 512MB) DDR 600 (PC 4800) Dual Channel Kit or OCZ EL Platinum Revision 2 1GB (2 x 512MB) DDR 400 (PC 3200) Dual Channel,if I go one gig.Looking at getting a 3500+AMD cpu.Was looking at the 3000+ AMD cpu.But I heard Its better to get a cpu with a higher multiplier.Is that true?If not I could save some money.I'm looking to be at least 2200Mhz or more.I'v read that the 3000+ is a great overclocker.One more thought.If I plan on going dual core which of these motherboards would be the best to go with?I would appreciate any help or suggestions anyone can give.Sorry so long.Thanks...
