OT: Need new m/b and cpu

I'm looking to do an upgrade. I want to go with a Epox m/b and an AMD xp1700 cpu. I have a sound blaster live platinum and an Asus v7700 gf2 gts video card. What is the best Epox m/b for this combination. Also eventually I will get a GF3 too. Racing games are the #1 priority. Thanks in advance...

I just did a mobo upgrade this past weekend, with racing sims a priority. I chose the Epox 8Kha+ mobo and the Athlon XP1700+. (My system has a Voodo5 videocard and a SBLive Value though.) Installation went smoothly, except that I had to re-format Drive C, so BACK EVERYTHING UP FIRST! (I learned my lesson....) I'm still working on getting WinVROC to work properly (see the post above yours), but other than that, things seem to be OK. I'm still in the midst of re-installing apps and sims. This thing is fast too.... Good Luck. DJR420 wrote: > I'm looking to do an upgrade. I want to go with a Epox m/b and an AMD xp1700 > cpu.
