Any commentary about Shuttle Mobo for Duron?

[tico_21]

I want to buy a shuttle ak10 or Biostar m7vkb both for duron. I want to know If this ones are good for clocking or any good or bad comentary.

Neither will offer much headroom for overclocking, as these boards do not feature onboard multiplier manipulation circuitry. If you are looking for a stable, low cost SocketA motherboard, then I would recommend the ECS K7VZA, review here at SysOpt:

However, the K7VZA is also not an overclocking board. If you are interested in maximum overclocking potential, then you will need to look towards boards such as the Abit KT7a, Asus A7V133, or MSI K7T-Pro2a.

Good Luck,

Thanks for your answer. I´ll concider it to buy this Mobos. My problem is that live in Sonora, Mexico (Border with Arizona). And here is very dificult to buy that type of mobos like Asus, Abit, etc, and very expensives.

Greetings from Mexico and thank you.

I have the Shuttle and cannot honestly recommend it. I had a Shuttle Pentium MB and it works flawlessly. The Athlon board is nothing but trouble. I have had to disable the onboard sound because it was causing the system to freeze or the sound to garble or usually both. It works okay with a separate sound card, but unless you can get it cheap, don't buy it.
