I am becoming stressed about my (not yet owned) A8N32 Board. I have been reading about a lot of issues with it, such as compatibility problems. So, I did the logical thing and made a post for you all to answer! I would like to know exactly what runs with it perfectly (OR with little issue). Anyone out there with this board, or anyone with significant knowledge on it, can you please help?

Ok, Will it fit in a P-180 Case?

What ram at about 250 dollars will run on it?

PSU, I still havent been able to find a real definate answer on this, anyone with this board whom can clear this up? I'm willng to spend up to 150$

Anything else I should know? I've read that the PSU and the Ram Are the biggest problems with this board as far as compatability goes. I plan on going the Athalon x2 3800 route...bang for the buck (Along with a 7800 GT, and eventual SLI).

I just need to know so that I can start ordering now, to hope for the system by Christmas or shortly after. (Mobo is hard to find as you all know).

Thanks ^^
 
All mobos have some kind of compatability issues. Its a given especially with these NF4 mobos. The Corsair 3500LL RAM was made specifically for it. Some people have used OCZ modules with it. It will fit the P-180. It will fit a big ole 9500 HSF if you want. It'll fit X2 chips and Optys. It will fit two 7800GTX and a sound card. It will fit two 512 7800GTX in fact. It overclocks very well from what I have read. The Seasonic model PSUs fit it fine and I believe the Enermax's do too. Its one of the most sought after mobo right now and as you know hard to find.

Do a search for A8N32 and you'll see the posts. Look at the people's sigs. You'll see what they got installed on theirs.
 
Just built a system with this board:
Athlon 64 4000+ San Diego retail HSF
Seasonic S12-500 PSU
Antec P-180 case
Corsair TWINX 2048 3200C2
BFG 7800 GT OC

The only problem so far is that the 4 Pin 12 volt connector from the PSU is not long enough to route easily to where it connects on the motherboard.
