EPoX 8KDA3+ nForce3-250Gb Socket 754 Mainboard (1)
Bluetooth 4 May 2004

8KDA3+ can be considered as one of the most featured packed mainboards I come across. In fact, it is the close cousin of the EP-4PDA5+ we reviewed some time ago. 8KDA3+ is made for the Socket 754 K8 processors and is based on the new released chipset nVIDIA NForce3-250Gb chipset.

The board is targetted at the overclocking community as it has PCI/AGP lock, voltage adjustments for vcore, vdimm, vagp and vchipset. On top of that, it comes with nVidia Personal Firewall and 8 channel audio with nVidia system mixer functionality. One of the most difference among the various chipsets for Athlon 64 is the Direct to Hypertransport Gigabit Ethernet Solution with Streamthru™ technology supported by this chipset. Basically it uses Hypertransport to communicate with the CPU and hosted physical layer directly.

Another neat feature that you would be drooling on is the nvRAID, a driver based soft-raid solution for SATA & PATA RAID device control enables users to control IDE RAID functionality. The mainboard supports an additional 4 more SATA ports using the SiliconImage Sil3114 enabling SATA RAID 0/1/10/5.

Lets head over to the next page to check out the features.
