Biostar TForce 939. The best overclocking mATX 939 board out there currently. Check out this thread:

Just search around a bit, there is one store selling them. Froogle is your friend.

Yes there is one store selling them, I got my on Friday and have been messing with it. No problems so far, very nice board.

I have changed my mind on the case.
I'm getting the SilverStone SG01B MicroATX Case instead.

The thing about the Biostar mobo is that it doesnt have firewire.

Can anyone suggest an alternative?

A firewire card

Other than that I dont think you will get a higher clocking board. Mine goes to 288. Any thing above that and it locks up.

I'd say get a firewire card

. Other than that you could look at the Foxconn 6150 board, although it's potential for overclocking isn't as high.

How do you connect the front firewire on the case to a fire wire card?
My mate gave me firewire card today but it doesnt have the pin connector on it?

need the front fire wire on the sugo to be active.I dont want to faff about around the back every time I want to connect a device.

seems the biostar is the way to go. I would like 3ghz out the opty 146 but I guess this wont happen with a micro atx mobo?

I'd say it's more down to your Chip. If you can source a CABYE 0540 or one of the early CABNEs then 3GHz should be child's play on the TForce, check out the thread I posted earlier, people often hit over 300HTT.

easyrider · 4 Feb 2006 at 00:27

Yeah its a CABYE 0540

ok looks like the biostar then.

any idea about the firewire connection on the front?

i'm using a Biostar Tforce above, and have a 146 sitting @ 3Ghz mem 1:1 @ 300 ofcourse.

ive upgraded (lol) from a DFi Ultra D

Woah, good job man! What case? The Aspire by any chance? I'm getting sick of the massive load temps of this Aria now, sometimes hits 56 under load
