NF7-S rev 2.0 vs. A7N8X Deluxe rev. 2.0

Nanidin · Aug 18, 2003

Ok, my A7N8X Deluxe (from here on out the Asus) has a disfunctional lime green audio jack. Newegg will allow me to exhange it for either another A7N8X Deluxe or for the NF7-S. Please help me decide Are there any pros/cons of the Asus vs. the Abit? I am looking to game with an OC'd 1700+(JIUHB DLT3C 0310), and will be watercooling in the near future. I have ddr400 ram so I am looking to OC around there at least, possibly higher. I DO NOT WANT TO PERFORM ANY HARDMODS TO THE BOARD. I will add cooling to whatever needs it though.
Thanks,
Nanidin

No hardmods, get the Abit. You can change the VDD, also the vCore is 2.3v which is enough to blow your CPU. The big problem is with the coaxial jack but you can DIY one for a seconds

The coaxial jack? The yellow one on the deluxe?

around 230, maybe even over

i'd go with the abit myself since it's the better overclocker...

i'm tempted to go out an buy the nf7-s 2.0 and sell my a7n8x on ebay... soooo tempted ....
