Best board for Twinmos 3200 w/BH-5 chips??

[Pilsnerpete]

have a a7n8x-deluxeV.2 that won't go past 198 stably in single channel OR dual with these almost legendary chips. So I'd like to know what motherboard these are best mated to? Plz list your highest stable oc with this memory and the timings you use, and on what board. To me, stable is 12+ hours of Prime95 torture test.

P4 and AMD boards welcome!

:beerete

I'd cast my vote for the Asus p4P800.

Winbond BH-5 goes together with Epox 8RDA+ boards like "meat and potatoes"!

I've got one running with 512Mb of Twinmos/Winbond at 215FSB for everyday use (11-2-2-2). I know many have gotten theirs to run much higher, but this is where my rig "feels" comfortable for 24/7 usage.

That wasn't quite what I wanted to hear. I saw some pics of leaking caps on one of those the other day. I think it's somewhere in this thread. If someone can confirm that it's not a problem (especially the ones who've had theirs for a while), it might still be an option.

The Abit NF7-S is known as a very good overclocker. I saw a pic that someone posted of an OC on a DFI Infinity board that got up to 250+MHz FSB.

My vote for Epox as well.

Shuttle AN35N-Ultra ... works like a charm

That would be mine. I've just sent it to Newegg for RMA and I'm still waiting for a replacement. Since the 8RDA+ is already out of production, I have no idea which board they'll replace it with, or simply credit me with a full refund.

Even if you still want the 8RDA+, I doubt that you can find them anymore (for new ones, anyway)

Hey, screw3d! Make sure you visit this thread again and tell what board they send and how it does (of course).
