754 AGP Motherboard on OCuk

From a few searches I've noticed there aren't too many 754 AGP mobo's about. From what there is though, what would bet he best option for all round decent performance?

MSI K8N Neo Platinum was a good board. I had one before i upgraded to pci-e and Sli on 754. There'e a similar one on OCUK. V2 maybe.

The DFI 250Gb is the best AGP S754 board around

no need to argue with that, nothing comes close to stability and clocking.

All i said was it's a good board. I did'nt say it was the best. I was sticking to what i know as i have one.

I had a similar question myself to Jameslee.

A family friend has asked me to upgrade their system. Ideally I'd be going for the DFI 250Gb, but the budget is really tight and won't quite stretch to that.

Failing that, do you guys rate the MSI K8N as the 'second best' socket 754 board?

This seems to fit the bill as it's quite a bit cheaper. I just wanted to check that it's OK?
