I'm finishing up the build on my htpc, but I'm looking for a nearly silent nforce 2 mobo with a silent heatsink solution. Because I wanted to 1) overclock my 1700+ and 2) have onboard spdif out.

I'm deciding between these two boards or is there a better sollution?

1. Abit AN7
2. Abit NF7-S V2

other important info: It's being outputed to a nice reciever with dolby digital, but should does the AN7 have an advantage because of this native support with the Soundstorm chip?

Soundstorm will allow you to get surround sound in games through digital.

I'd go for it.
