Iwill DK8N

Conclusion


The DK8N owns a niche market.  There are others out there with PCIe slots, and those without PCI-X slots.  The DK8N simply fills the gap for those who require a solid board with both AGP and PCI-X slots.  It is well-designed, and very stable, not once crashing in our 100+ hours of testing and playing.  The DK8N has a few BIOS-related issues, but nothing a little re-programming from Iwill can't fix.  It does not have any overclocking features in the BIOS, but there are aftermarket utilities out there that can tweak your FSB easily from Windows.  It is aptly priced for its features, and is supported by an established manufacturer.  Just like the MPX2 and the BP6, the DK8N is simply one of those boards that you know is truly the best in its class.
