Stuck between the Abit NF7 v2.0 nForce2 or the Asus A7N8X-X nForce2...
The Abit has the advantage of having dual memory controllers, but I have always known Asus to be reliable and stable.

What should I do !?!?

Got an ABIT NF7S, couldn't be happier, computer was ulta unreliable until I swapped to the ABIT motherboard (from an ASUS board - though not an N-Force one)

I too am a big fan of Asus but for my next mobo I will take a serious look at Abit as they seem to have the most overclocker friendly BIOS

Tom's Hardware Guide had their 2003 Survey results published...

Asus was the top MoBo maker.

I use Asus... only buy them now as they are rock solid and reliable (a bit like myself)

Saying that, Abit come highly recommended by a lot of people too.

Decisions, decisions.
