Overclockers NZ helps you make your decision there as they take a look at the MSI K8N Neo2 Platinum and Gigabyte K8NSNXP boards on nForce3-250 Ultra, as well as ASUS's A8V Deluxe and Soltek's SL-K8TPro-939 on VIA KT-800 Pro. Clear winner? there certainly is.. read on to find out.

However, the public is faced with the greatest paradox of all, which motherboard to go for? Thus, we've gathered round four popular socket939 motherboards on the market and examined them under a big magnifying glass in hope to shine some light on this question.
