Not the most up-to-date thing any more, but what socket A motherboard can be pushed furthest? Have an AMD 2500+ that I can get to just under 2178MHz with an Asus A7V8X-X mobo. Any higher than 198x11 and it gets unstable. I`m convinced the mobo is holding me back, so what do y`all recommend? The A7V8X-X has a KT400 Northbridge, would a KT800 or Nforce2 do better? Better cooling on the Northbridge? Lower the multiplier? (currently locked)
Cheers

P.S. keeping with Socket A coz i dont think the fiscal outlay to buy a `939 board and proc is worth it for the performance increase. Although I wouldnt say no to an Nforce4 with 2x6800GT`s....
