Asus A7N8X nForce2-SPP Motherboard Review
"Ask anyone in the computer industry to name who they think is the best manufacturer and Asus will always be one of the first companies to come to mind. Asus have been producing motherboards, videocards, and countless other OEM components since 1989, and today we're going to be examining their extremely popular Asus A7N8X nForce2 SPP motherboard.Based on the nVIDIA nForce2 SPP chipset, the A7N8X was one of the first nForce2 motherboards on the market and the board caught on like a wild fire. Being first always has its advantages. Asus offer the A7N8X in two versions; there's the deluxe model which is probably the most well equipped motherboard on the market (with dual Gigabit ethernet, firewire, Serial ATA) and the plain "no frills" version which is what we're reviewing today."

I am waiting for the Springdale chipset and the Abit board which will be supporting it. I do think that nForce2 is another great chipset, and this is what I would choose if I went with an AMD for my next system.

i got a 2400XP+ with the ASUS A7N8X deluxe. I must say this ownz. I also added a 9700 pro to compliment this duo. I must say that there is no probs with either. I also added 2 Corsair XMS PC 3200 CL2 Platinum memory for the dual channel DDR. I have lots of improvement in my performance by far. For a gamer as myself, this is the perfect rig. I am waiting though for the 2500 Barton. That sucker will own with this board. The OC will rock.
