Hi board..this is actually my first post here, but i have some software questions that range from programs and drivers..
FIRST...

1. Which benchmarking program should i use and where do i get it??? i've heard of WCPUID..but not sure?

2. Which A7N8X Deluxe Drivers are best?? heard the newest ones aren't the best??

3. Which Burn-in program is best and where to get it??? i've heard of Prime 95 so far.?

Thanks

the ASUS NF2 mobo, you can ONLY use the drivers that came with the mobo on the cd. the newer drivers updates are not for the asus nf2.
