In Need of New LGA775 Motherboard for OC.

[Kriztoffer]

Hey guys.

Today I managed to shortcut my Asus Commando. So I will need a new LGA775 board for overclocking..

one at Ebay for a decent price: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=330395243845&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT

I'm thinking of picking up a new Asus Commando at Ebay, but I'm not 100% sure.
Anyone who could recommend me another LGA775? It needs to be a really good overclocker!! I only want top notch LGA775.
Cause I will really miss that motherboard. I care more for my Commando than Classified:p

Regards Kriz

A Striker Extreme is probably better?

nVidia chipset? Please don't lol. Get another Commando Kriz, the board is legendary.

I'm thinking the same. Thought no response from the seller yet, but seems like a nice dude. I've spoken with him once before, he sells a lot of Motherboards.

And I've already done volt mod at the Commando, so I should probably just pick it up.

And since I'm getting LN2 in a week or two, the Commando should be set for some 7ghz+ action.:)

I'm a bit worried about buying things at Ebay, I know there are reputation and stuff. But I really don't want to get scammed.

Buddy of mine (die hard air clocker) swears by the rampage extreme.

TBH I would think since you have a dewar coming you might want to go P45 to get those nice 6-700 FSB clocks ;)

[ocgmj]

I think he is using the board for Celeron and such. I don't think a P45 will work.

[Kriztoffer]

RE x48 is nice, but I don't know if I want to spend the money. Asus Commando is real fun, lots of overclockabillity.:)

[ReverendMaynard]

word, you know the board well, probably best to keep with your experience. Hope it works out and you get to lay down the pwnage.

[Kriztoffer]

That's also a factor.:) I know it very well. So it's easy to pick one up and Vmod and then just throw it under the bench.

[Neuromancer]

Heh heh good show than :) I was thinking E8XXX for LN2 never even thought about celery stick ;)

Hope the guy wakes up soon and responds to your emails :)

[Kriztoffer]

I'd love to go with E8600 for 01. But I already have a few cellys and p4.:) It's the best priced Commando I could get at this moment.

I just need to know if the seller got socket cap/cover, cause I don't want to get a screwed MoBo in the mail.

[Kriztoffer]

Sorry for DP.

Just picked up a new Commando, can't wait to do some Vmods again:D Love it.

[Splave]

what do you think about the p5e3, I have a e6600 here waiting to be piss pounded

[GFDuke]

That would go nice in my R2e Splaver.

I always loved the Giga EP45T-UD3P under cold.

[Kriztoffer]

I'll need a good dual core board, soon. I picked up a E8700 from Dinsdale Hardware. It was shipped out this morning, so can't wait till I get it. Can't wait to try it out.

Maybe a EP45T-UD3, Biostar Tpower 45 or a rex...other solutions?

Anyone who have used this board?

[Kal-EL]

Is it a good board?

[Kriztoffer]

Is it a good board?


I've heard it should be good. And I'll die for trying it out...But seems like a pain in the arse to get it..
Found two of them in Taiwanese Ebay, but I can't understand a crap of that they say or cost..:laughing:


Anyway, if anyone sees this motherboard for sale, please contact me. I want to try it out!

[Neuromancer]

For what chips?

That means alot... p35 was not good at certain FSBs.. and if you are running a limited setup... going to have holes that you need to jump, much worse than 965 IIRC..

Might be a good one though, asus had a few top score with the 775 platform... wish more people spilled on hte submission forms so we could check out boards :)

Yeah, that is true for sure!

I've not seen much from this board, I'd really like to try it anyway:D I love rare and new hardware.

I was quite happy with my Biostar I45 mobo... Could do 650FSB on air and it even run a old 800FSB P4 D930 @ 5300Mhz under pelt cooling... Too bad i have to sell it now :/ im sure gonna miss it....
