Default Best Duron system?

I need to spend less than $250 total for a new mobo and a duron maybe 600-750 mhz including shipping. I'm water-cooling so ill unlock it and oc to at least 800 on a 600chip.I cant decide between the abit kt-7 raid, asus a7v or the msi pro 2a. has anyone done a real comparison between them? no favorites, just the facts- which one is more stable when over clocked by 200mhz?<grin> thanks in advance

I would personally reccomend the ABIT, because it has been a very good overclocker for my Durons. Why do you want to get a duron 600, and O/C it to 800? You can buy the ABIT KT7 RAID for $100 shipped, and you can get a 700 duron that will EASILY O/C to over 1ghz for $45. That would be only $145, leaving you $105 extra! You could pick up a 256mb stick of PC150 CAS2 for that, and still have $5 pocket change to get another fan!

Message me if you want some details of where to look and stuff.

By the way - I have a duron 700 for sale
