If anyone would read on AMD Tech Forums (a thread on HTT), everyone acknowledges that 1600 vs 2000 on Socket 939 doesn't effect performance very greatly. If anyone reads on AMD Tech Forums other thread about the nForce 4, most people acknowledge that the HTT will be preset to 4x. They say that it is a good thing because then it is one less thing to change to get a decent initial overclock; suppose you have a 3200+ and are trying to oc. You can get 4x250=1000/2000HTT and 250x10=2500MHz. As far as overclocking goes, it looks very nice. There is a clockgen version that is compatible with all nForce4/nForce4Ultra/nForce4SLI boards so you know might be a very nice board after all and it is only $125. At least it has more features than that crap looking Chaintech VNF4 Zenith Value Edition...think about it...you're gonna pay for 2000 HTT when maybe the 1600 HTT will help you out more if you are an ocer...I wouldn't...you'll have to pay at least $100 more because that GA-K8NXP-9 on NF4U is $235 least I've seen it...think about it....

My GA-K8NF-9 is due to arrive this week. I hope everything turns out fine...
