Best Racing Sim Motherboard?

I am going to replace my Chaintech MB with something that has adjustable
DMA latency timing. I only get something like 30MB/s with the DMA test
on my Sierra Screaming 3D and N2 does not run smooth at all.

I also want it to support SDRAM and the coming AMD K6. Has anyone tried
the K6 with a Rendition board?

Possibility to overclock to 75/83MHz would also be nice.

Anyone got any suggestions?

The upcoming TX based ABIT AX5 will support 83mhz.

Well, I know the ASUS P55T2P4 goes up to 83Mhz, I'm running it right
now. And at $159 it was a steal, unfortunatly, I had a prob with my
Sierra Screamin' 3D card while running at 83Mhz, so I "Tamed"
it down to "Only" 75..... so I'm running a p187 w\mmx......
lot better thatn the old 486, thats fer sure...

>> For the ABIT I don't thnk it will do 83Mhz bus.. But 75Mhz is
>> feasiable.

I beleive it had more to do with windows than anything else,
it was one of the *.VxD files..... Go figure..... Still, it's better
than what I had...

TritonVX board and it supports 83 mhz plus it runs most all of the popular
cpu's
