Dying to get a new board quick to replace my DOA Asrock as Ive waited for so long to get a new pc, and cba to wait over a week for a replacement from another well known competitior stocking the board, as there RMA is awful.

Is this board (A8N-E) any good (I'm looking to get some stable overclocks on my x2 3800+ as apparently its a decent clocking stepping)?

Also is it worth spending the extra £5 to get the A8N-SLi SE, as I see AI Audio (which I presume is better audio) is listed as one of its features, I'd be very thankful.

Edit: Just noticed someone in a previous thread saying the board was dreadfully unstable with a 3800+. Was this a bios issue, is this board now fine? If not, I guess I ought to spend the extra 5 and get an SLI board (he says he got a replacement Premium SLI board, which is admitedly the higher end of the two sli Boards...but if a SLI board is stable and problem free, it'd be worth it.)
