Hello. I am about to order a new PC in a few weeks. I have been trying to decide which motherboard to get. There are two. the Abit Ic7 Max3 and the Asus P4c800-E deluxe. I have read every single forum and review on this WORLD WIDE WEB. :p and have not came to a conclusion. Here is what i have planed out...
CPU: Intel 2.4c 800FSB
Mobo:....?
Heatsink: Thermalright SP-94 + Vantec Tornado 90mm High Output
Ram: 2XOCZ DDR PC-4200 / 533mhz / Performance Series
HD: -Western Digital 36.7 GB 10,000 RPM
-MAXTOR 40.9GB 7200rpm
Video: Radeon 9800 pro 128mb
Ok. First of all both motherboards are great. The ram that i have, i have heard does not work well with the MAX3. and the heat sink have picked out i was wondering if it fits the Sp-94, due to the OTES cooling? THe divider problems onteh Max3 i have heard are a big problem but some boards are very lucky and do not have these. The Max3 has a wider range of voltages for the components. BUT the i heard taht Asus has released an improved bios version that gives a wider range. of voltages and im not sure what else they have updated.
If anyone can start to answer my questions that would be GREAT!:D THANKS
