Need new mobo... suggestions?
 
I'm looking to replace my Gigabyte GA-7DXR mobo... it has serious issues, (just read my other posts.. :) ). What should I get? Preferably something that overclocks well, and has PCI & AGP dividers. Need RAID too. built in Ethernet would be nice, also.
the Gigabyte GA-7VRXP has those things; what do you guys think of that one?

Also, is there a large forum that specializes in mobos?

btw, just about every motherboard since Pentium I days has had pci dividers

Just my view
 
ECU - you can go to AmdForums.com for a large board with lengthy threads on AMD motherboards (a seperate forum for each manufacturer).

One thing to keep in mind when perusing such forums - on the one hand a significant percentage of the people that post to them have problems. On the other hand they usually make up a small percentage of the total number of owners of a particular m/b. This can result in a very skewed view on how good/bad a m/b is.

At this point in time I would agree with Brad on the KR7A-Raid. A semi-thumbs up on the Epox 8k3A (there do appear to be a few gotchas). The 3rd I would suggest looking at is the ASUS A7V333-Raid.

As far as the AT7 *puke* :)
