Nf7 or A7V8X-X? Secondary rig.

[xplicit]

Building a secondary rig.
Should I go NF7 or A7V8X-X? I have both boards - just not sure which one is better.

Thanks.

I would say the NF7. But both are good really

NF7. nForce2 Ultra 400 versus VIA KT400A... the nF2 wins easily overall.

NF7.

One recommendation, order the Zalman NB cooler right away, and get rid of the dinky fan it comes with.

The fan on mine failed within 6 mos. of assembly, and my research showed it to be a pretty common problem. Save yourself the headache.
