I have never had a Abit board and was wondering the quailty of these boards. How are they and if you have any of the ones I mentioned can you please tell me your experience?

ABIT AN8-SLI (I dont plan on going SLI but it is only $10 more than the ultra which I was considering)

Thoughts from anyone please.

Get the ultra

i would get the SLI. the onboard audio is better and you'll get the SLI option later if you want it. and heck, its only another $17, so why not?

onboard audio will never compare to daughter cards, they just eat up too much of the system processor which I think is pathetic. so good sound or not, hell with it

get the ultra, sli mobo, and never go sli, pointless

non-ultra will make you feel like you shouldn't have even gone with that model of the mobo in lesser grade.

So the daughter cards, are those little card thqat have the PCI-E provision near the rest of the i/o panel in the back? How much resources do they eat up?
