I wonder which is a good micro atx motherboard that can overclock some what nicely.

The biostar TForce 6100 mATX has been said to be pretty nice. I got one coming in tomorrow.

edit\\\\ n/m, I didn't see the "for intel". I'll look it up for you.

Correct me if I'm wrong but I'm pretty sure Opteron's don't come in s478. oh WOW nice edit...just in time

Anything with an 865 has a good chance (over SiS and Via), but it's not true across the board: some boards have different options. Best bet? Read reviews on newegg or such...

Shows overclocking options in some of the s478 mb's. That should be enough to help you make a good pick.

what do you guys think?

asus, I've heard too many problems from gigabyte, shuch as hardware incompatibility.

 

[kevin_tsoi2000]

Just so you know, you can only change the FSB on the ASUS. That may limit how much you OC, depending on the rest of your rig.

Edit\\\\ I was looking at the ASUS P4S800-MX. It may be wrong, but the link I gave you before says that there NO OCing options in the P4P800-VM.

Edit2\\\\ It's confimed, there is no OCing options in the P4P800-VM

I would go with the Asus, which are well known for making very good mobos.

my mobo is pretty good, the only thing it can't do it set voltages but everything else YEAH

i was going to get a biostar one and it looked sick but i guess my gigabyte one is good anyways, (parents chose one out of the 5 i gave them, i still love them

)
