A8N-Sli PremiumStrengths: SATA, RAID, SLi, very versatile Weakness: A little on the pricey side. I used this MoBo for my first build. Everything went together easily. Only problem I have is the board recognizes 1GB of RAM as 512MB. Then again I only have 1 DIMM of DDR. I have an AMD 64 X2 +3800 overclocked 8% and have not had any overheating problems. I would definetly recommend and buy again.

Strange memory issues with Corsair XMS TwinStrengths: Super solid once you get it updated. Right memory, oddity with Corsair XMS Twin but now flawless. Weakness: Had issues with Corsair TwinX XMS Ram, found on forums that you can get the board in a state where it won't boot with this ram until you try a different type of ram, then XMS again (weird) Other than the RAM issue (which I resolved) this board is terrific. Been running for 4 months and never a problem. I can run every game COD2/FarCry/Tiger Woods 2006 maxed out Had to update the OS to get Tiger Woods 2006 to run solid. Windows XP SP2 (with updates) AMD 3700 San Diego 2 Gig Corsair XMS Twin memory (4x512) manually set to 2-3-3-6 (400Mhz) Western Digital 3.0 Sata II drive Xeon 600w...

easy setup, stable, coolStrengths: Very easy setup, my first build and absolutely no problems. Has every connection you could ever want. AI booster is really nice. Heat pipe is the way of the future for mobo's. Weakness: Audio connectors for the front panel can be tough to get too System: AMD 3700 Corsair XMS 2x512 Dual Channel 2-3-3-6 XION 600w SLI power supply (very quiet and powerful) HP 740i Lightscribe DVD/CD burner Western Digital Sata II drive 120 gig Gigabyte 7800GT (Call of Duty runs great with this card, max settings)

Smokin' MoBoStrengths: Versatile, complete, fast, state of the art (for now!)! Weakness: No on board wifi I'm using this MoBo with a AMD X2 3800+ and two Asus EN6600GT/TD/128 nVidia 6600GT 128MB PCI-Express and it is smokin' hot and fast. The built in sound is what I'd expect from a built-in chip, maybe even a bit better. I'm updating a current computer I built a couple years ago and have quite a bit of building experience, and I had no problems with install, set up, or drivers.

Excellent productStrengths: so many features, minimal problems, heat pipe, has everything i need right now Weakness: minor trouble with PS/2 ports, but resolved. This motherboard has more than I need right now, but I wanted something that would last a long time with upgrading and such. I am using it with an Athlon 64 X2 4400+ and have had no problems with using the features of the mobo. I haven't even tried every little thing yet, but the stuff I have used has worked flawlessly. I used to hate the board fans so I was glad to have the heat pipe. I still...

Great Board - Has it allStrengths: Has basically everything all bundled into the board. Instructions are very easy to follow and istallation is simple. Weakness: If you aren't setting up a RAID then you will get a little lag time on the load screen All around a great board. Paired it with 7800GT I get good benchmarking scores across the board. I've yet to buy another vid card to SLI due to the fact they're a little pricy at the moment but I'll be doing it soon enough.

nForce 4 - SLI boards are all very buggyStrengths: Good looks, 1 more PCI port than most; game port Weakness: Only 4 USB ports built-in directly on header; chipset cooler very hard to change to liquid cooling; BUGGY Like all nForce4-SLI boards, this one is VERY VERY BUGGY. Before you take the plunge, be sure to check out the user forums at Asus's website, and see all of the trouble being experienced, even by advanced users. Many theorize that repeated lock-ups are due to ineffective chipset cooling, and indeed, the built-in fanless cooling design (which is physically connected to a MOSFETs heat radiator, and...

The ASUS A8N-SLI PremiumStrengths: Has basically everything all bundled into the board. Instructions are very easy to follow and istallation is simple.

A Great Board for gaming, Sli, & Graphic DesignStrengths: Windows based; Sli switching & Bios Upgrades Weakness: None that I can tell so far I just upgraded my system from an AMD Athlon 1.2Ghz Socket A. I got this board after doing alot of research on it. I desided to go with this board for 2 major reasons 1) Windows based SLI Switching & 2) Windows based Bios upgrades. So far I haven't tried manual overclocking with it but the software that Asus packs with the board is great. I'm a gamer & I play Doom 3 on high, Far Cry on High,...

A8N-SLi Premium Motherboard
Strengths: Easy, and clearly marked motherboard for this first time builder. The directions were excellent.
I really love how quiet and cool my machine runs. Overclocking is super easy with the Ai Booster program. There is alot of room for upgrading on this motherboard I know I will have it for years.
