    Can you guys give me the pros and cons between these 2 mobos?
    DFI Lanparty UT nF4 SLI-D versus ASUS A8N-SLI Deluxe

    I'm planning on running one of those mobos with a AMD 3700+ San Diego

    Also which would be better (2)6600 GT or (1) 6800 GT? I just checked and realized I have an extra 3 Hundred to spend more on my build.

    on the motherboards the dfi slight out benches the asus on several test, but not buy much. both of them are excellent motherboards. It seems sevaral people are having trouble with the asus lately. just look for wigster's thread with the same cpu he cannot get it to boot no matter what. I'd get the dfi to be safe.

    on the video cards 2 6600 gt's will perform the same as 1 6800gt so get 1 6800gt and when you get the extra cash throw in another!

    Is it just the Asus A8N sli premium having problems or pretty much the ASUS A8N Sli line up?

    if you go to the asus forums you can read there that many asus boards are having this trouble.
