Good Evening HotHardware Fans! BW here, checking in to let you all know that we've just posted a big Socket 939 Motherboard round-up featuring four high-end motherboards from Abit, Gigabyte, and MSI. Two of the mobos, the Abit AV8 and MSI K8T Neo2-FIR, are based on VIA's K8T800 Pro chipset and the other two, the Gigabyte K8NSNXP-939 and MSI K8N Neo2 Platinum, are based on NVIDIA's nForce 3 Ultra. Each board has merit, but only one can be crowned the winner. Click here and see which one we picked!
Marco Chiappetta
Marco's interest in computing and technology dates all the way back to his early childhood. Even before being exposed to the Commodore P.E.T. and later the Commodore 64 in the early ‘80s, he was interested in electricity and electronics, and he still has the modded AFX cars and shop-worn soldering irons to prove it. Once he got his hands on his own Commodore 64, however, computing became Marco's passion. Throughout his academic and professional lives, Marco has worked with virtually every major platform from the TRS-80 and Amiga, to today's high end, multi-core servers. Over the years, he has worked in many fields related to technology and computing, including system design, assembly and sales, professional quality assurance testing, and technical writing. In addition to being the Managing Editor here at HotHardware for close to 15 years, Marco is also a freelance writer whose work has been published in a number of PC and technology related print publications and he is a regular fixture on HotHardware’s own Two and a Half Geeks webcast. - Contact: marco(at)hothardware(dot)com
