I just purchased an Asus A7N8X-E Deluxe motherboard from my local
supplier.

I assumed that they had sold me the latest and greatest version, but
now I'm not so sure.

When I run SiSoft Sandra, the board is reported as REV 2.xx.

However, when I opened up my case, it is silkscreened with rev 1.01
(near the A7N8X-E marking).

Is Sandra making a mistake and my reseller selling me the wrong board?

And could someone please post a link with the differences between the
different versions of this board?

I need to take this back ASAP before I have problems returning it if I
have to!

Thanks!

What it says on the board is right.
Sandra does not always get it right.
PC Wizard 2004 will show the rev number when you click on the motherboard
name.

as a reseller you can only sell what your supplier gives you. So it is not
the resellers fault that a warehouse happens to have a bunch of rev 1 boards

First there was A7N8X Deluxe Rev 1.XX (several versions of XX)
Then, A7N8X Deluxe Rev 2.0
For the next design they changed the name to A7N8X-E Deluxe Rev 1.01

So, the -E 1.01 comes _after_ the non E 2.0
All is well - no ripoff Smile
