What's the heir apparent to the Asus A7N266-VM/AA?

Has an nForce2 flavor of this board shown itself?

Currently the Shuttle AN-35N Ultra everyone here loves is on sale at Newegg, but I'd need a cheap AGP card for it in the process. The only AGP card I have is the Ti4600 in my main rig, and I can't afford to upgrade it and bequeath it to the other box this mobo is for.

Use will be as a bot box for an MMORPG, jukebox, file server, tinkering box.

Options look to be buy another of the A7N266 boards (wife surfs on one, loves it), one of the Biostar boards, or get the Shuttle and the cheapest AGP card I can manage.

I prefer XP, and am more comfortable historically with nVidia solutions, I like the unified driver, but am not married to it.

and mechBgon, I'll be using a good PSU, either a 350W Fortron or the 380W Antec that's packed in a Sonata :)

Help?

Asus A7N8X-VM/400

I have a similar board made by Biostar, which is probably the most overclock-friendly mATX board on the market. It works as advertised.
