well... because of the Nvidia Nforce3 AGP issues(Nvidia not wanting to support Vista with an official AGP driver).. I have decided to get a Nvidia GeForce 6150(nForce 430) mobo... ;)
just got it today its rock solid at 250mhz FSB x11 and I could probably even go higher if i wanted to.(I'm thinking about going for 275mhz)
memory @ 250mhz(DDR500) 2-3-3-7 1T :D HTT 4x250(1000)

BTW, it's a Foxconn same people that make Apple motherboards... LOL

btw, I'm using the onboard integrated video card (GeForce6150) I have 128MB of Ram dedicated to it, and I only have 1GB of system Ram so... currently I only have 896MB's of Ram and I'm currently running Windows Vista Ultimate 64bit RTM without any problems... I have the system overclocked as stated above and have passed Orthos Stress Prime 2004(dual-core version) and SuperPI 32M...(only one instance, not enough ram for 2 instances) ;)

Plays DVD's good quality, pretty impressive for an integrated onboard video, I was pretty surprised.

not to bad for a Motherboard that only costed $66.99 and has features like this

Athlon 64 X2(I have a opteron 175 in here)/ Athlon 64 FX / Athlon 64
onboard video (GeForce6150 128MB Vista Aero ready, good for office work and movies, NOT GAMES)
8Channel audio
4DIMM slots up to 4GB's RAM
PATA x4
SATA 3Gb's x4
SATA RAID 0/1/0+1/5 (hardware RAID not software RAID apple fanboys)
GB LAN
8xUSB2.0
2x1394a(I never use this) USB seems to work
