ASUS A7N8X Deluxe vs A7N8X-E Deluxe?

[William W. Plummer]

What's the difference between the two MBs? I have an broken A7N8X Deluxe
and a -E that works fine. The former has a "feeper" sound device and an
AGP warning LED and certain things such as the CD Audio header are in
different places. The CMOS setup on the -E seems nicer -- it has the flash
program on it and other little goodies. --Bill

The E version has everything same as regular Deluxe plus adds Gigabit LAN
support (instead of 100mb) and has a slot for the ASUS Wi-Fi b add-on card
for (supposedly) easier wireless configuration. See this web site for E

The regular Deluxe CMOS setup also includes the flash program; you probably
need to update yours to the latest version. Lastly, what is a "feeper"
sound device? The sound, AGP, serial ATA, IEEE 1394, dual channel DDR 400,
dual LAN are all the same, according to ASUS.
