1. Abit Fatality AN9 32X nForce 590 SLI, DDR2 socket-AM2, 2xGbLAN, 2xPCI-Ex16

2. ASUS M2N-SLI Deluxe, nForce 570 SLI, Socket-AM2 DDR2, 2xGbLAN, ATX, 2xPCI-Ex16

3. ASUS M2N32-SLI Deluxe, nForce 590 SLI, Socket-AM2, DDR2, 2xGbLAN, ATX, 2xPCI-Ex16

4. ASUS M2N32 WS PRO, nForce 590 SLI, Socket-AM2, DDR2, 2xGbLAN, ATX, 2xPCI-Ex16

5. ASUS MSI K9N SLI Platinium nForce 570 SLI, Socket-AM2, DDR2, Firewire, 2xGbLAN, ATX, 2xPCI-Ex16

Whisch of these MOBOS should I prefer? Is there any greater difference between them?

For a crunching machine you probably don't need any board with SLI capability... unless you're also planning to buy two ATI's for crunching Folding@Home.

I'd go for:

3. ASUS M2N32-SLI Deluxe, nForce 590 SLI, Socket-AM2, DDR2, 2xGbLAN, ATX, 2xPCI-Ex16

It has wireless built-in! Plus gets good reviews on http://www.dabs.com/productview.aspx...6&v=3#infoarea

ASUS are good boards, i like mine at least.

No ATI Graphic card. It cost over 3.000 Swedish crowns. If I should have 2 Graphic cards it must be 2 identical and it will cost 6.500 SEK ($900). It is too expansive in SEK.

And the ATI 1900's are a bit scarce right now.

Also two GPU's aren't supported yet.

I don't see the huge deal on motherboards but then I guess it's because I don't game. I'd go for one with the option that I wanted but don't give a wooden nickel for overclocking so I'd be fine with some of the cheap boards at the minute.

I don´t play either. But it seems as motherboards for AM2 have sli and supports raid which I never use and never want to use.

Is thera any MOBO´s as not us e SLI and not support Raid?

Have a look at Asrock ALiveNF4G-DVI

It does a good job at a great price and has some fairly good O/C ability if you ever wanted to push it further!

EDIT: here's a place in Sweden where you can but one http://www.kso.se/index.php?products_id=1051

Thank you blackheat. I`m working on it but I have no hurry. I read the news about AMD´s new Cores and am unsure If i will buy an AMD or a Intel Core duo.

Have you considered DFI?
