Hopefully in about a month I will be upgrading my computer,Probably going
with a athlon 64 3400. I have owned several epox boards in the past and have
always had good luck with them. I will just run 1 drive on the system and
thinking of getting the Wester Digital Raptor drive. Looking on Newegg's
site there is the Epox 8KDA3J, the 8HDA5+,the 8KDA3+.
Just wondering what really the differences were between these boards. I know
the HDA5+ has the via chipset. Since I am not going to run raid though is
there any need in spending the extra money for the DA3+? Are all these board
built with about the same quality components? Will be using a sound card
also, so I will disable the sound on the board. I will not be overclocking
either.
Thanks in advance for answering.
