I just built couple of them:
754 pin, 3200 on a Gigabyte GA-K8NSNXP MB.
939 pin, 3500+ on an Asus A8V Deluxe.
Opinion: Both mainboards are topshelf and neither are cheap with the extras. Both new boxes outperform the Intel chips they replaced (3.0c/3.2e) without me having access to the weirdo 64-bit WinXP floating around out there. They're also both too new for me to have scientific (or even much anecdotal) evidence to gush over, they're just both perceptivly faster then the previous Intel solutions. Also: as stable as bedrock and not nearly as cunty as previous AMD Processors could be (re: thermal detonation).
I probably should have waited for the PCI-express solutions but I already dropped huge coin on bleeding edge AGP based cards. If you haven't maybe you should too. Maybe we should all wait for pheromone interfaces on our quantum boxes but I got shit to do.
