i have geforce256 ddr dvi, thats good enough for me, which board is more stable and which one has better performance and overall

Basically, this depends on what kinda feature/function that you wanted.

If you want to have a more overclockable platform, I suggest you choose EPOX board. Otherwise, A7V133 is also a good choice for system reliablility.

In my persional of view, I will recommend you to buy EPOX 8KTA3+ PRO.

Advantage:

1. Cheaper than A7V133.
2. Fucking damn good overclock ability(Stress speaking)
3. Highpoint RAID subsystem has the better performance than Promise RAID on the A7V133.

FYI

i am not a hardcore overclocker, all i need is one damn stable motherboard, and u sure its epox 8kta3pro+ or its 8kta3pro

Definitely, that's 8KTA3+ PRO. One of the latset board comes from EPOX that's based on KT133A chipset.

"+" means onboard Highpoint RAID built-in.
"PRO" means great overclock ability.

EPOX products are very famous in JP, I strongly suggest you to buy this board. You will have very good impression with this board.

what about just between 8KTA3 and A7V133, which one would u choose?(lets not mention about 8KTA3+pro)

Well,well.....

I am not a sales man from ASUS or EPOX. What I commented is totally coming from my experience, and jsut want to share with you.

Actually, I had A7V133 and 8KTA3+ Pro, but I sold A7V133.
I kept 8KTA3+ PRO board with my current system.

I am so satisfied with 8KTA3+ Pro. Just only word I can say, "Perfect".
Very stable, great performane and overclock ability.

AYHJA 1G --> 1.52G (145*10.5)

However, If you let me make a choice, I will choose 8KTA3.

It won't dissappoint you, trust me.

thank you so much, i will get 8kta3 then
