    Question for Scan Techy's

    I am in the process of building my machine. I am still not 100% sure on the Mobo, so i wondered if you could tell me which is better for gaming and OC'ing.

    DFI Lanparty SLI-DR
    or the Asus SLI one you have on your web site?

    I'm sure our friends at Scan won't mind me poking my head in here and pointing in the direction of this HEXUS.review:

    ASUSTeK A8N-SLI Deluxe -vs- DFI LanParty UT nF4 SLI-D

    To keep it brief, if you want solid nForce4 SLI performance, good features and pricing that won't break the bank, either board will do. However, if you want the utmost control over your system and the chance to tweak like you've never been able to tweak before, Oskar Wu created one hell of a DFI mainboard for you.

    No Worries Kez - Nice reply infact.

    Its very much the same as what I was gonna post, but if you check the following list you can see most the top10 are infact DFI based.

    Oh the link.. http://www.futuremark.com/community/halloffame/

    For me, the stability of the asus as well as its quirky features such as being able to listen to CD's without powering the system on and its vocal reporter (that is now Homer Simpson on my particular A8N system)

    Incidentally I run the A8N SLI Deluxe. It's good, even if the BIOS is... interesting.
