Has anybody seen any good write ups on AMD boards?

Either nVidia/nVidia or Via/Via or nVidia/Via?????

The thing to do right now is wait for NF4 (any time now) if you want to go A64...

DFI infinity if you want to stick with XP...

Check out the article posted in here...

I haven't seen any big ones in a while. You generally will only find them at the BIG sites like [H], Tom's & Anandtech. Only places with enough pull to get lot's of board from several different manufactures at the same time.

i heard nForce4 boards are PCI express exclusive possibly.

The best one imn my opion is the Epox, i know a guy that got it, he likes it so i am going on his recomendation, the 939 socket.

I heard that NF4 will include an AGP slot also, along with PCIe

So I guess we all have to wait and find out for sure...

I saw some that had multiple PCI-E, but I am unsure that they had AGP. I am sure there will have to be AGP, at least on some, so people aren't forced into a double upgrade!
