When it comes to motherboards that caters to overclockers, the name at the top of the list is Abit. The Abit BH6 and BX6-2 motherboards are the overclockers' motherboard of choice when you want to push that Celeron or PII/PIII as far it can go. Both our Project 527 and Project 560 use Abit BX6-2 motherboards to achieve their insane speeds.

However, Abit is no longer the only game in town. Enter Micro-Star International, with it's new MS-6163 motherboard. A motherboard made with the overclocker in mind.

Combining some of the best features of the Abit BH6 and BX6-2, MSI has come up with a motherboard that just might take the title of best overclocker's motherboard away from Abit. In the short time I have had this motherboard, I can say that I will NOT be giving it back. This motherboard is a keeper. The MS-6163 rocks! In many ways, it's better than the best that Abit has to offer.

Is this motherboard right for you? Read on and find out.
