Basically i've had my pc a month now and im starting to get bored. At stock its ok...but i want more power. So i thought about a new motherboard so i can overclock a bit better.

I am fully aware that for a lot more power i will have to ditch the amd and go for an intel C2D, but im quite happy with the AMD as i've owned them all my life and they have never failed me yet.

The motherboard im looking at is the DFI Infinity nF UltraII-M2/G.
You can see it Here. (http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=MB-021-DF)

I've read some reviews and some say it is a cracking intermediate board and has some great overclocking features. But on the otherhand some people have had a lot of trouble.

Im 75% sure its the one i will go for, but wanted to see if anybody on the forum has had some first hand experience with this board. Or if not if they can reccomend one in the same price band (around £50).

To sum up i want to be able to play with overclocking a bit more, but im not some mad man trying to reach 8ghz, lol.

Thanks in advance!



Just found another cracking review....

Perhaps it could OC better than your current board, though that's likely the last DFI board I'd choose. I'd start by looking for something that can run ddr2 @ 800.

ahhh, i get your point.

But if you read through the reviews when the bios is updated it can run ddr2 800, some have even run ddr2 1100.
