Which of these 2 mobos should I get?

Asus A7n8x Deluxe

Or

Gigabyte GA-7N400 Pro

I will be getting 512 mem and AMD 2500+ proc to go with these.

Out of those two, I would go with the ASUS, if you do be sure to get a rev. 2.0 it is more future proof.

Between the two choices available definitely the Asus.

Agreed!

Will an SK-7 even fit on the Gigabyte?:eek:
Other than that, the Gigabyte has a better board layout and is a fair amount less money.:)

I followed your link in my post to here... I think it's fair if I do the same:

However... to add to your page of help... I've been looking here at just a ton of reviews for the Gigabyte boards you're looking at:

Good luck.... I'm not sure which to go with...

all I know for sure is that it will be one of these 3:
Asus A7N8X Deluxe v2.0
Gigabyte GA-7NNXP
Gigabyte GA-7N400

Why not the 8rda+ for $83 shipped at Newegg?:confused::confused:

Features.

I like features.

I'd be for sure getting that sweet Gigabyte board... but I don't know about they're quality... or which of the boards will OC better. Once I know that, I'll know what board I'm getting.

Please check out my other post. :)

I probably wont be OC it. I will be going for the Dual DDR. What extra features does the Gigabyte have over the asus. And im talking about the Gigabyte pro not the XP
The Gigabyte is like 115 and hte asus is like 130 so not that big of a price difference.

VERY pleased with my Asus;)

I think this has some info for ya.

There is a comparison of the Asus and the Gigabyte on Tomshardware. They recommended the Gigabyte. Anyone know of any other "side by Side" comparisons?

I'd go for the 7N400 Pro. In fact, I'll be picking one up soon (once I can get up the nerve to part with my hard-earned green). I particularly like the extra IDE channels and dual BIOS.

Haven't you noticed by now that THG always recommends Giga-Bite?
hmmm, I wonder why? No! Don't say it! Don't even think it!!
Could it be cuz they PAY him? Naaaah....

There are other sites that speak very highly of Gigabyte's nForce2 boards. My opinion of THG is probably as negative as yours, but that doesn't mean Gigabyte's products should be discounted as viable options.
