Negative. It's an entry level VIA chipset m-ATX board. There's no hope for it.

NF7 or NF7-S, both need to be ver.2. Those are the only NF7's worth looking at.

Good price. You got a deal. E-Bay still fetches 60+ dollars for those. Most decent forum members will sell them to other members for around $40 or so, so you're right in the ballpark.

If still debating over the Asus, check out this link:

Mr. Scott was right about the NF7 or AN7's being able to get by my MB but I have to disagree with "Blowing it out of the water".
I'll let the results speak for themselves.

The A7N8X-E is the same as my 2.0 Deluxe except it has SATA and mine doesn't. True, each board will have it's own ability to OC but I believe a good clocking A7N can hold it's own in most cases when setup correctly plus they tend to be rock-solid too.

In the case of an A7N, it's all about getting it "Just right" and this board is perfect for someone wanting to learn how to OC Socket A's. Then you can take what you've learned with it and apply it to the others for even better results.
