Any overclocking tests yet?

Tom's is the only site so far that I've seen review the board, but at least we know others have it now, so it shouldn't be long.

Yes, mrmbmh, wait for it.

 

[mrmbmh]

OK... Thanks geogecko

Asus is quick with releasing new products better than anybody else. I hope it's out soon cause waiting is the worst...

There is now an English User's Manual out on the web site.

http://www.asus.com/support/download/item.aspx?ModelName=A8N-SLI%20Premium

 

[geogecko]

Oh, and download that from the "Global" server. The link to the "USA" server is jacked up, and you end up with a 15K byte .pdf file.

When are they going to release the A8N-E Premium?

I want that so bad!!!

 

[cornholio2]

I can taste the metal in my tongue right now. LOL

 

[gate1975mlm]

If I at least knew that it was coming out maybe by June I would be ok with that and wait. But as far as we know it may never come out. Asus needs to tell us something!

 

[geogecko]

Hmm...it's been over a month since our last post here. Anyone heard anything recently?

I noticed that ASUS is making it more difficult to contact customer support these days, unless you actually have a board...possibly to cut down on e-mails they are getting asking when stuff will come out? Now you must fill out an on-line form to submit. No longer an e-mail address.

I will be getting my case in the next couple weeks, and was really looking at getting this board over the Deluxe version.

I'm in the same boat. All of the hardware in my new system build is available - except for the A8N-SLI Premium. I do find it odd that the board isn't even listed on ASUS's web site. Makes me wonder if the board will ever see the light of day. :|

 

[geogecko]

It will, it's already been reviewed by a couple places. BIOS updates are also available from ASUS (go to the support page, and you'll see it listed).

 

[teamride]

Its in stock at atacom

[Waylay00]

Nice find!

 

[Deinonych]

Hmm...it doesn't state anywhere that it's in stock. I've sent Atacom an email to see if it's indeed in stock.

 

[teamride]

it appears to be in stock

[geogecko]

I've come to learn you can't always trust price engines like that, at least, as far as stock goes.

 

[DfiDude]

300 bucks wow!

 

[Waylay00]

Yeah, but remember when the the A8N SLI Deluxe came out, it was also $300.

 

[DfiDude]

Yea

 

[stickybytes]

who is actually even going to buy this board?

unless it fixes the 250 wall problem, comes with a non defective chipset fan and offers a noticeable performance upgrade over the a8n-sli dlx, i doubt anybody will pay the extra "premium".

unless of course this board drops to prices competitive with the a8n-sli which would be around 180ish.

anyone else agree with me here?
