939 clockable board with AGP

phatboy · 6 Nov 2006 at 13:22

hi all

Im in the process of upgrading to A64 skt 939. Im looking for a decent clockable board with AGP compat, as i cant afford to upgrade the card and PSU at present in order to go over to PCI-e, and im quite fond of my old 6800LE too

been lookin online and cannot find a board that meets the above needs...ANYWHERE!, seems like agp based boards have disapeared off the planet

was considering one of the Abit boards that were available or a DFI. any one have any other boards i should look out for? or if anyone is considerin selling one of these type of boards on the members market soon, let me know

Cheers

Ben

I have also been trying to source one of the Asrock 939 dual sata2 boards and take my word for it, no one is selling em any more (tried every Internet search known to man). By all accounts, Asrock have stopped making them, even though the VSTA version only came out a couple of months ago. A shame, as they would make a cracking cheap upgrade for people at the moment.

Quite happy to buy one though if OcUK was to get hold of any though.

Your best bet is probably the mm or a certain auction site.

one piece of advice, stay well away from the nf3 dfi.. I lost much amounts of hair on that one, did manage 3.1 gig out of a 3700 sd on vapo though, so can't all be bad.. just uber amounts of stress.

knew i'd forgot something. Anyway, I had one of these on a 3500 up to 260fsb. Can't remember if I went any higher. was a good board. I only got rid of it to uprgade my gfx.
