The Gigabyte GA-7VTXH: this board is suitable for extreme overclocking an AMD Athlon XP 2000+. This is the only motherboard that offers 1.92 Volt. (We used a chipset fan for extra cooling from another motherboard.)
According to our test findings, the Gigabyte GA-8IRXP provides the optimal basis for overclocking an Intel Pentium 4 (Socket 478). It offers a core voltage of 1.85 Volt max. The majority of boards work with 1.65 Volt max.
