FIC VA-503A+, truly enjoyed that board and it carried me to the very end of Socket 7 with a K6-3+ 450 @ 672Mhz 2.4v With 1mb onboard Cache it was a speedy rig that owned my PIII 550 that overheated on a regular basis (lotsa case cooling solved that)

An Athlon XP M 2600 Barton, model No. AXMG2600FQQ4C, had a stock FSB of 266 MHz and ran at 2133 MHz. That equates to a multiplier of 8. If the FSB was 500 or greater the CPU frequency would have met or exceeded 4000 Mhz. That would be quite impressive.

Stock for a 2600+ Barton is 2Ghz with a 15x multiplier (15x133) 133 is 266MHz DDR
He means 250Mhz 'Real' so 500 DDR FSB. If not i know its BS

Heh dunno why some peeps like to quote DDR values when its much more straight foward to say the real MHz value (as most people do )
)definitly the almighty NF7-S v2.0
that coupled with a barton 2500 XP-M clocked to 3200+ is an absolute monster. Definitly the best system i've had.
Although the Gigabyte GA 7N400-Pro (not Pro2) is an absolutely awesome mobo for the same purpose as the NF7-S
For value. I would have to say my ASUS A8V Deluxe is superb. Picked it up off ebay for 20 quid about 18 months ago. great bargin!

I take it a lot of you got the NF7-S as your first o'cin board?
actually, my first was the Gigabyte 7N400 Pro board. But after so many positive results from people who owned an NF7, I went and bought one
I still have it now, sitting in a box under my desk with a 2700+ Athlon XP sitting in it
