Bad Axe in my opinion is a class motherboard, but I know many disagree :)

what stelly said. after many years of coping with asus and undervoltages i have seen the light with the bad axe. It may sound as OEM but this piece of pcb really blows ya away with its potential to clock further


but i havent seen what DFI has to offer, so :D

accordin to a lot of people they can't even get the FSB to 400 on the DFI... and that its not the bestest of boards for Conroe

Spend £780 the X6800, or save £530, by getting an E6600, and putting the £530 toward a 32" LCD HDTV?

Now it seems to me that the whole point in overclocking is to acheive value over what you are supposed to get for what you have paid out, buying an X6800 almost makes that not applicable at all.


i agree
its madness
