    Looking for a nice cheap AMD mobo

    I like the NF7-S, but its just too much and the NF7 does not come with onboard sound.

    I am looking at the MSI K7N2 Delta right now and its looking pretty good especially at 79 bucks.

    The Abit NF7 does come with onboard sound... 92.00
    (Much better board than the MSI)

    The Shuttle AN35N also comes with onboard sound...63.00
    (Also better than the MSI board IMO.)

    Both prices are quotes from Newegg.

    why not get an 8rda+? they have soundstorm right? i think that would be very close to an nf7-s for overclocking too.

    ThaKid, if you're working on a tight budget, I'd say get the most cost effective. The 8RDA+ gets my vote, it's OCs pretty well and is cheaper than the NF7 (I think, though I ain't sure . What do you expect? I don't live in the US of A )

    Both of these boards are great. If you're short on cash, the AN35N is a solid choice.
