Well here are your options -

1] Asus A8V Deluxe [ VIA K8T800 Pro]
This board is a good board for casula overclocking,rock solid @ stock speeds.Good value for money and is cheap.Costs around 8-8.5k
You can ask Bottle more about it as he owns one.

2] MSI K8N Neo2 Platinum [Nforce 3 Ultra]
This is a very good board though a bit on the expensive side.It is very famous for being an excellent overclocker.
It costs around 9-10k.

3]Asus A8N-E [Nforce 4 Ultra]
I know you want an AGP based solution but could not resist from recommending.This is a very new board and not yet in the market but expect it to hit the Indian streets in 1st week of April.Should cost around 8-9k.
Overclocking potential should definately be better than A8V Deluxe.Worth thinking about.

I hope this helps you ;)
 
The MSI is a better option but is a bit expensive ! If you are gonna go over the head with OC'ing then u better go with the neo 2.
 
not available and after 1 April,VAT will be applicable and prices will increase.
I also didnt want to invest in K8N Diamond as i already have A8N SLI and it doesnt make sense when i have one SLI based board.

You could also opted for Nforce 4 U board?
Edit

Price will increase after Apl1? My dealer tells me that priced will come down
 
are u sure that after the application of VAT, the prices will incirease? if so, i shud hurry :S
 
it cost me 9600/- all inclusive.
This price is Before VAT.
After VAT prices on all stuff will rise by min 4%
 
darklord are you building another system or what?
What are you gona do with your 2X 6800GTs if you are going for this board?
 
Darky, congrats on deciding to build a new pc, just one question though, whatever happened to that newyear resolution of urs? ;)

Well, been pinging Rashi on that board for the past few weeks - but they disavow any knowledge of that board. But Delta might get it early next month I believe. And, seriously, why do you think it will OC better - is it because you have some info that it is Rev. 2 ?

Well as i dont got much time these days due to office work,i have sold both those cards to a good friend of mine.
I am not too interested in grafix cards but am crazy when it comes to boards & CPU.
So now i am on a 6600 256 MB.This should suffice me if i get the urge to do some fragging.

After selling the cards,i will buy this new board+CPU and keep the remaining money with me for future upgrades.

SO here is what i will be using-

1] Main Machine -

AMD Athlon 64 3200+
Asus A8N SLI Deluxe
1 GB DDR400
80GB Hitachi PATA
200 GB Cuda PATA
XFX Geforce 6600 256 MB
Benq DW1610
Powersafe 450 Watt PSU

2] Experimentation/OC Rig :P

AMD Athlon 64 3000+
MSI K8N Neo2 Platinum
512 MB Mushkin CL2 Performance Ram [To be Bot from a friend :D ]
40 GB Samsung PATA
Sapphire ATI Radeon 9000Pro 64 MB AGP8X
Ibox 350 Watt PSU

3] Secondary Rig -
AMD Athlon 64 3200+ [ ClawHammer]
Asus K8N-E-Deluxe
512 MB DDR400
80 GB Cuda PATA
300 Watt Powersafe PSU
Liteon 52327s
LG CDROM

Well i have no such information but i cna say that from simple logic.That board has fewer onboard devices,it doesnt have SLI,this means the chipset is less stressed.SO it should OC a bit well compared to A8N SLI board.Just what i feel ;)
