I just swapped my A7V8X single channel DDR MB and 512mb stick of Mushkin level II recently.
I used the 9800 (BIOS flashed to Pro) out in it first for a direct comparison to the new A7N8X Deluxe dual channel DDR MB.
MB: Asus A7N8X Deluxe Rev 2.00
CPU: Barton 2500+ @ 3200+ (11x200 FSB)
HS/F: Retail AMD (for now)
RAM: 2x256mb Mushkin level II PC3500
VC: Radeon 9800 (BIOS flashed to Pro)
SATA HD's: 2xWD Raptors in RAID 0
ATA HD: WD800JB
CDRW: LiteOn 52x24x52
Case/PSU: Antec/True Power 430W
Mouse: Logitech Mx 700
Monitor: Mitsubishi Diamond Pro 930sb
OS: W2K Pro SP4
Results on A7V8X Deluxe with 2500+ (11x166 FSB)
3dmark 2001SE = 14540
3dmark 2003 = 5344

3dmark 2001SE = 16202
3dmark 2003 = 5506
Results on A7N8X Deluxe with 2500+ overclocked to 3200+ (11x200 FSB)
3dmark 2001SE = 18244
3dmark 2003 = 5690
The numbers are the "default" benches and the ATI 3.7 drivers also the "default" install.
