Anyway which board is better the
Asus A7N8X
or
Abit NF7
I have seen a lot of people using the Asus board, I have owned Asus and Abit boards and they both perform great for me. So what is the preference of people around here??

My uncles just bought the new Asus board A7N8X Deluxe - some people have issues with it - he did not - straight in, all cards and a thermaletake aquarius II and a 2800+ AMD chip - water cooling system up and running BAM just like that!!!!
now i have heard many have had to RMA their boards and have issues. but otherwise it is a sweet a** board!!!!!! get it if u can - frankly i prefer Asus for quality as i have never had 1 issue with them myself.

I've been using Abit's original nForce 1 board for almost a year now and it's been solid as a rock---and completely changed my mind about Abit. If I wanted to get a new mobo, I'd probably be looking at their NF7-S or possibly MSI's. Chaintech's Zenith looks pretty sweet, but that's about the priciest one out there.
I've heard alot of good things about the Asus boards though. The bad news is, Asus tends to run you a bit more than the competition for a similar product.

I got a A7n8x deluxe. Best board i have seen on the market:
(2) Serial ATA
(6) USB
(2) IEEE 1394
Dual LAN - Realtek 10/100 and 3Com Gigabit Ethernet
Onboard 6-speaker sound, most boards only come with 2
Digital Decoding (probably will never use it but its nice to have)
It is a little bit more pricey but hell for that many USB and Dual LAN with Gigabit ethernet is a damn nice setup.

A7N8X Deluxe is without a doubt the BEST amd board on the market today. It has nForce 2 chipset, dualDDR capabilities, Serial ATA, USB 2.0, the best onboard APU on the market, 8x AGP, and the capability of handling 3000+ Barton cores and highly beyond.
To get anything else would be stupidity
