The Abit has some average overclocking results but if you want extreme results. I would rather go with the ASUS or DFI.

Actually I've heard the Abit AT8 32X is the best crossfire board for overclocking.
Here is a review with the abit and dfi boards:

Alright, thanks. That is what I thought. Just didn't know if there where any other catches.Originally posted by: soydios
With 4 sticks of RAM, all AMD Socket 939 processors (I dunno about Socket AM2) are unable to run at 1T, they must be run at 2T command rate. This has to do with the memory controller on the processors, not the motherboards/chipsets. Intel is different.
