Asus P4G8X Deluxe [Review, Hexus]
We had already found that the Granite Bay chipset has the potential to overclock well from our review of the DFI NB80. The Asus P4G8X has the additional benefit of adjustable voltage and because of this we were not disappointed. We were able to push the P4G8X right up to a FSB of 185Mhz using a vcore of 1.85v, taking our humble P4 2.66 processor to the dizzy heights of 3700Mhz.

VIA P4B Ultra [Review, Hexus]
The P4B Ultra is a feature-rich, stable motherboard. The troubling aspect is that many others from differing chipsets can offer the same number of features and stability with a greater deal of availability. A better BIOS from enthusiasts' point of view, Firewire support and widespread availability would have made this motherboard into an attractive proposition. As it is it's just above average.
