Simplist way to find out is to read the reviews, you get more in-depth information.

I used to have an A8V Deluxe and it was rock steady all the time I had it, overclocked reasonably as well (got my 3500+ to 250x10 no problem). Never had any problems with it so i can recommed it.

A8V-VM is one of the few A8V boards that fully support Opteron and Dual core out of the box too (from the first BIOS release) so I'd imagine it is fairly new revision of the A8V series and most of the bugs would have been ironed out by now

cool thanks for the replies.

so i will probly be getting this board, i kno this if off the topic of mother board but would i be able to boot straight back inot my HDD with this mobo? Bcoz obviously it will be usuing different drivers. Coz i really need to back up some of the stuff in my current hd which i cant access.
