A7N8X DeLuxe ver 1.04 - Will I have any benefit for new 3.13 driver?

[Sven]

Will I gain performance or safety if I use the new 3.13 driver instead of
the official ASUS driver for my A7N8X DeLuxe ver 1.04?
I'm not using onboard sound or onboard SATA.
I am using onboard LAN, and onboard IDE-controllers. I'm not sure if this
new driver can do anything for me when not using sound and SATA.

I've recently updated to 3.13, and the main benefit is in the IDE
driver, because the benchmarks show now an increase in transfer rate.
That's all I can tell you. My board revision is same as yours.

get an AMD 2500+ Barton (333 FSB ... and up...snicker) ... they are the
current "value" overclockers.
BUT...
Beware, if you are planning on overclocking, shop for a chip produced prior
to week 39 of '03. More recent chips are reported as "locked".

good luck.
