nforce2 ultra 400 question

In AnandTech's Gigabyte 7NNXP review, Evan mentions that all motherboards that hit the market before the nforce2 chipset became the nforce2 ultra 400, now indeed have been revised to use the ultra 400 chipset, and that they are all considered "revision 2.0" mobos by their respective manufacturers. However, when i search pricewatch.com for certain nforce2 boards and append it with "rev.2", or "rev2", or "revision 2", i get no results. when i searched for ASUS's A7N8X without appending it for example, i got many results for an A7N8X-X mobo. Is this how ASUS denotes their 2nd revision mobo using the nfirce2 chipset, or does it just denote onboard graphics or something like it?
 
yeah i just realized that i wasnt running a search for the deluxe...but even when i do that, nothing comes up in the product's description that indicates that it is a revision 2 board. how were you able to know that it was a rev2 board before you ordered it?
 
The Asus A7N8X-X is their single channel nForce 2 board. I don't think that's what you want. I don't think Asus has any special name for the A7N8X Deluxe Rev 2, they just use the name A7N8X Deluxe. But all the new boards should be revision 2. Call/e-mail the store you're ordering from to confirm.
 
It should hopefully say Nforce Ultra 400 somewhere in the description and also 400 fsb support, where as the old ones usually said 333 fsb and 400 ddr. But You should make sure before ordering.
