That would be the Asus A7N8X Deluxe. However most people here prefer the Abit NF7-S of the Epox 8RDA+ so I would get those instead if you have the choise.

don't buy ASUS, A7N8Xs drop like pregnant *****s in the ocean (they die A LOT)

If you have to go with the ASUS go with the A7N8X delxue, but try to get the NF7-S rev. 2 if possible.

well if you have to buy asus id take the a7v333 over the a7n8x myself.many may dissagree here but heres my comparsion.

a7v333 has hidden jumpers to over volt anything to its death.
ive had one do over 210fsb with alot of carefull parts planing.
and its rather cheap now.

the a7n8x is expensive as hell. hardley will overvolt anything.
unless you get the newer chipset revsions it wont do 200fsb either.i hated the a7n8x myself.

but i wll say try ordering from newegg.com and get a nf7-s wich is teh best at the moment for ocing.
but if ya gotta by local and with a little research the a7v333 is a much better ocers mobo imo than the a7n8x.

in saying that the nf7-s is twice as good as the asus a7v333 so i really hated the a7n8x even more :D
