8rda3+ from newegg, or 8rda+ from newegg
I have the 8k3a+ right now, and it has brought me all the way to 2.4ghz on my 1700 tbred B. but PCI bus is WAY too high for my liking.

which of these would you recommend. I have corsair PC3200 cas 2, so I want to run a HIGH fsb. I can spend the $120 for the 8rda3+ or the $83 for the 8rda+, so thats not an option. but I want as much of a guarantee that i will be able to overclock ALOT.

thanks alot guys

the serial ata ports and the northbride fan on the 8RDA3+ at newegg is worth the extra imho. however no one has written about fsb overclocks on the revision 2.x's that are shipping now.

another argument could be that the 8RDA+ has superior audio onboard. a s-ata card and a notrhbridge cooler can always be added later
