New ASUS MB

[WWS]

I just purchased the A8N32 SLI Delux, I was going to get the A8N SLI Premium until I found this. Those that are using this board, Does it Kick ***

What are your plans for your board?

Well its got dual 16 x bandwidth, which is helpfull with SLI, 8 phase power which helps a bit when overclocking, a good overclocking BIOS. It doesnt have as many features as a DFI board, but the new DFI's have been having some serious issues so I think this is a very good board. All the reviews were good also. I would buy it. And if you do get it tell me how it is cause not alot of people have it so far.

I plan on using it mostly for gaming. I am looking to get a 4800 X2 CPU, dual nvidia graphics cards (XFX 7800 GTX's) 4 GB memory, 2 X 300 GB hard drives.

Ok yeah, get it lol. Just make sure the version your buying is rev. 2, rev 1 was recalled for some reason.

That board kicks so much ass lol (currently my fav K8 board)

Not yet it isnt. But it's certainly a technical feat (doubling potential bandwidth is nothing to balk at)

And if you do get it tell me how it is cause not alot of people have it so far.

As ASUS promised: cooler and faster ... and the layout is damn superb. Cant hit the vDimm values trhe Lanparty board (i.e. ASUS limits you to 3.2v) but generally speaking thats not a limitation unless you're running the top tier class memory and hitting the overclocks (for which you wouldnt be asking on how to this or what to buy or similar type questions)
