Im building a budget amd64 for a friend and im debating against a asus K8V or a MSI K8T NEO-FIS2R which one should I get? I doubt any overclocking, just gonna be teamed with an 3000+, thanks guys for help
Well I've used both boards & I prefered the Asus as it was more stable & the bios was easier to use. If there was overclocking happening I'd go for the MSI (working PCI lock) but as this isn't the case then I'd say the Asus.
I have the Asus K8V SE Deluxe and running an AMD Althlon 64 3200+ and i really like it. Its been very easy to use and very stable. The only problem i've had was that i got a bad one from newegg. The voice post message was saying "system failed cpu test", but my processor was fine. So if your one of the VERY few unlucky ones to get a bad K8V SE Deluxe, dont automatically assume its the cpu and test all your other components. Don't let my bad experience stop you from getting one, I really like it and I have 4 other friends with the same one who also love it.
