I currently own a ECS K7S5A Motherboard, and an Athlon 1.4 Processor unlocked. I bought the board because of its price, but now I want to be able to overclock my system and the ECS line dosent offer any way of doing it other than modified bios (scary) or softFBS/ CPUFBS. I currently use SDRAM and really would rather not upgrade to DDR unless I absolutely have to($$$). My question is, which motherboard is the best for the $ and very overclockable using standard fan and heatsink ( I dont want to go with an elaborate water cooled system). I was looking at the new MSI board KT3 Ultra (MS-6380E v1.0) , but Im not sure how overclockable it. It also used DDR 333, which is nice, but more expensive. It also has the ability to take the FSB to 160mhz. I know MSI boards come w/ fuzzy bios, but I have heard thats crap. Please let me know your opinons on this matter and why. I want to be able to overclock the hell out of my processor !!
