So my new motherboard crapped out after a month of use. I RMA's with newegg, and the one they sent is crap too. I get no video signal, and when booting a bare system, with only mobo, cpu, psu, and memory, i don't even get a "video failure" post message. I have done quite a bit of reading on the Asus support forum, and found many people with this same problem. So i am exchanging it again with newegg, but i think i will sell the new one on ebay, and buy another one. So, does anyone have any favorites. I would like some suggestion. The one i am returning is the Asus A8N-SLI Deluxe. My specs are

AMD 64 +3500 socket 939
Enermax 420W PSU
2X NEC DVD dual layer rewritable drives
SATA 250gb hitachi HD
2X 512 DDR400 184 pin Corsair XMS memory
eVGA 6600GT 128MB PCI-E video card

I've had as many problems with cheap boards as expensive ones. I usually find one that's a small step up from the cheapest you can find and get it on pricewatch.
