Question What`s the best Motherboard for an Athlon XP3200

What`s the best Motherboard at the moment for an AthlonXP3200 running @200mhz with Crucial PC3200 Ram?
My Asus A7N8X Just doesn`t want to run it so i`m resigned to getting a new Mobo!

Re: What`s the best Motherboard for an Athlon XP3200

Abit NF7-S v2.0 is generally regarded as the best AMD XP board.

The Asus is ok, but can't reach anywhere near the speeds the Abit does, the DFI boards are fast provided you can get them to work ok, and they stay that way (prone to BIOS corrution).
