see this is the problem with threads like this, there are people who rate 1 board, and others who rate another board. There is no "better" board, just how well you get on with it personally.

I guess the 2 on average that are rated, is Asus A8V 2.0 and Msi K8n Neo Plat, I bought the MSI cause its a good £20 cheaper than the asus here, and was from the same retailer... shame they're not instock and I have to wait till next Tuesday
