What can I say? I love this motherboard. Going to be hard to beat.

Wow, I like that board... I wonder if they'll make an NF4 Ultra board of that caliber?

 

[ruiner5000]

Well depends on if Nvidia updtes the nF4 Ultra chipset I suppose. May see an update to the A8N-E though.

Volts are still limiting. Why bother designing in an 8 phase power when you're only offering 1.575 vcore? A three stage does the job just fine a la A8N-E

Yeah, definately makes no sense, when vdimm is up to 3.2. Vcore should be up to 1.7 at least.

There seems to be a lot more ram settings than my A8N SLI Premium.

Well that review was almost as worthless as their RDX200 CF-DR review......... A decent camera to shoot bios screen shots and you could launch your own review site......... Geezz!

hi guys i'm new here am thinking of upgrading to either the a8n32 or the premium from an a8v deluxe and was hoping that review would tell me everything that i wanted to here (not) i could take digital pics to and put them on my puter to. could you folks that have these boards please give me the pros and cons of these boards
All input is very very much appreciated as this will be my 2nd build the first was the a8v
thanks Tom

man, you guys are real, real ready to to criticize. of course i've got nothing else to do but xray boards, and spend a couple of months on a review. since you guys are so great, why don't you guys band together start hypocriticalprickhardware.com?

 

[ruiner5000]

unfortunately i run the entire site, and a business, and unlike wesley i can't dedicate my self to motherboard reviews only. of course when we move to our new location, and add staff, and much needed room, things will change. but by then hypocriticalprickhardware.com will be so dominant that i might as well shut down after 7 years.

And who might you be smartass? 7 bios screenshots and a "Oh what a cute heatpipe" isn't a damn review......... We knew all this info long ago.....

 

[sparkey]

some of us go to a trusted sit that usually gives us what we want in a hurry because we have limited time and this time it let me down sorry if i insulted you in any way shape or form bu ti really need to know about this board or the premium board thats why i'm here and also at the asus forums
thanks Tom

It is interesting that the Quake4 benchmark is from NVidia. Why? AT is good enough to do it on its own. I am not alleging bias, I am just curious...

When people stop visiting your site because of previews like that, you just might have to shut down. I'm surprised you haven't with your attitude.
