i'm no expert to be honest, but i've built 2 pc's with that board and from my experience of it, it's stable, fast and the price is really good.

i think the A7N8X-X is the budget version of the A7N8X range so, if you want firewire etc you can get on of the others, but it had all i needed.

no idea what the best out is right now, depends on what you need, but this is 400mhz fsb so there's room to upgrade your chip later if you want.

I'm using a mobo from a fairly new company and I don't have a single complaint. I ended up going with XFX for my home PC and it has been solid, I mean SOLID, for 7 months now.

Got the KT400 ALH
