The K8V is socket 754, which doesn't exactly give you a long upgrade path.
Also, look out for the K8V SE (Second Edition? Sucks Extremely?), it
_appears_ to have problems with the onboard ethernet under heavy load,
though noone here has managed to put their finger on it. nForce3-150 has
weird problems, but I don't suppose you'll run into those lots any more.
