Ah. Some good news. I just found out that I don't have to pay for it. None the less I will still go for either of those motherboards. I think I'm going to go for the MSI...the guy that works down in the motherboard section of fry's electronics doesn't know shit. I asked him about the capacitor problem...he's like "Oh...sir that is due to too much power going into the motherboard. MSI never had a problem with capacitors..." So he provided no help. You guys helped alot tho, way back when, when I first posted the issue of my problems w/ my capacitors caps exploding. The cpu will be $89.90 w/ a 3 yr warranty, HS and fan. AMD Athlon XP 2000+ (sorry cik).

No such animal called "2000+ Barton".

Don't be stupid, go with the Epox board. The top Nforce2 boards out are the Asus A7N8X (Deluxe) or the Epox 8RDA(+) / 8RGA(+).

Do your homework b4 you get something you'll regret.

True that...

My 2 choices would be either the Epox or the Abit out of the nforce boards. If you don't want to go with the nforce chipset then get the Abit AT7-MAX2.

How does the Asus A7N8X measure up?

Don't you mean your 2 choices would be either Epox or Asus for the Nforce boards? Is that a typo?
