A face-centered cubic (fcc) lattice is inherently prone to magnetic frustration, since it is build from a network of edge-sharing tetrahedra. Up to now most studies were performed on insulating systems. We have investigated various metallic systems with neutron diffraction experiments, where the magnetic Ho-ions form an fcc lattice: HoInCu4 and HoCdCu4 [1] as well as HoInAg2 and HoInAu2. All compounds exhibit long-range magnetic order with different propagation vectors, which can be understood within a simple J1/J2 model [2]. Furthermore we found diffuse scattering dependent on the degree of frustration of the samples.
