An upscale "megatasking" motherboard with loads of power, the Asus L1N64-SLI WS is designed specifically with the enthusiast in mind. Equipped with an AMD dual socket L (Socket 1207FX), suitable for Athlon FX processors, the L1N64-SLI WS is more than capable of handling anything you may want to run. Using the Nvidia nForce 680a SLI chipset the L1N64-SLI WS supports Quad SLI which gives you the ability to use four graphics cards together for unbelievable processing power.
It also includes dual gigabit Ethernet ports, 7.1 channel onboard sound, and 12 SATA ports. With those 12 ports, by adding multiple hard drives to the system, this versatile card supports RAID 0, 1, 0+1, 5, and JBOD. For growing your virtual empire, it offers multiple slots, including four x16 (which can be used for graphics cards), and one x1 PCIe slots, plus an additional PCI slot.
With all this heat-producing operation going on, ASUS keeps you cool with huge copper heatsinks and heatpipes for silent, efficient cooling. For any gamer that wants to build an extremely powerful system, the Asus L1N64-SLI WS is a perfect base for your weapons systems.

perhaps
- Pros: excellent board.
- Cons: none.
- Other Thoughts: being an electrical engineer specializing in digital design, it only makes sense to place the memory where it is currently placed on the motherboard. to the average joe, it might be fun and convenient to place the memory slots by the floppy connection for heat dissipation. the problem is the FSB leads from the memory to the processors need to be the same distance or there will be major problems with data being transfered from mem to proc's with syncronization of the clk freq. please dont lower the rating on a good board because of things one wishes were true, when in all reality, components are where they are for a reason. a lot of thought obviously goes into designing a board, so if you think of something that doesn't look right, it's been thought of by the EE's that designed the board a long time ago. that is all.
Excellent Choice
- Pros: Have had great luck with ASUS boards, and this one is no exception. With dual FX-74's and two 8800 Ultras in SLI, Oblivion is so unbelievable I can't describe it. Waiting for Crysis. I was at first worried that I might not have room to install a RAID card (in this case the ARECA ARC-1211) because of SLI , but it slid nicely under the first 8800 Ultra. (SLI in both blue slots) Barely room for the Floppy Cable below the second 8800 Ultra, but it will work. No Secondary IDE, but Primary IDE will pick up CD rom, etc., which was not the case with the last ASUS mobo I purchased. (Assuming you're running all HDD's in SATA) This mobo comes with "three optional fans"; these mount on the copper coolers you see in the pics. The literature will tell you to use these fans only if you're water cooling or something where the CPU fans are not mounted, b/c they mess up the air flow on the CPU fans, but as I tested it in-game and just idling, the fans actually cooled my system about 8 degrees be
- Cons: I put 4g Corsair on this board and it blue screened. From the ASUS site, I learned that you must boot first with 2g, then after the OS is installed, add the remaining memory. Some boards will only recognize 3 of the 4g, but this board sees and utilizes all 4g. Two 8800 Ultras did cover several of the SATA slots, leaving only 6 to connect to, and the heat these cards produce puts the hurt on the bridge cooler. Board states that "you can use 4 graphics cards" at once, but there is obviously no room to accommodate this with today's larger cards. Note that when you put these two huge vid cards in the blue slots, the only PCI x16 slot left available is the black one between the two white PCI slots; the fourth black PCI x16 slot at the bottom of the board is completely covered, as is the white PCI-e slot. Memory location on this mobo is about the only place where heat is not a factor; but difficult to change out sticks once the system is operational.
- Other Thoughts: NewEgg Rocks !!

RMA Warning
- Pros: when working its a nice board that accepts all kinds of goodies
good memory speed, nice processors and other such things
- Cons: ASUS RMA... if you have any problems with the board expect at least 2 weeks down time. they say 10 business days but i am currently on 15 business days and still waiting for my RMA to be filled... they don't have an 800 number either.
- Other Thoughts: asus needs to fix their RMA or they are going to loose a lot of business. People don't want to buy products from companies that they have to fight with to use a warranty... The consumer also has to pay for one way shipping.
Asus RMA sucks -2 Months downtime
- Pros: good while it lasted
- Cons: 6 months having this board it failed. After a month of ruling every other component out, it was decided the MoBo was bad. Unfortunatley, I had to go through Asus RMA (not Newegg). That is when hell on earth began.
Asus support RMA and shipping Dept sucks!!! I was lied to 2 times as far when it would ship. They say it will ship in 10 days, @11 days told it will ship in 2 days. After them having my MoBo for 3 weeks they finaly sent a "replacement" board (not new...don't be fooled) It took a week to get via ground. The Mobo was stuffed into a undersized box with virtually no padding, every capicitor was bent over. And worse yet the pins in the socket were bent. On the 2nd cpu socket there was notable excess thermal grease from previous install, and dust prevelant. At this point I have to ship this hunk of s^!t back and wait for a "new" one. They say they will over night..yeah right!
- Other Thoughts: Make sure it's your MobO thats bad Because you WILL get a nutted on board back in return.
It cost me $20 to send it to them, and I have about $25 in long distance charges ( yeah they dont have a toll free #) and endless hours of aggravation.
I have a asus products in my box o'plenty....I from now on will never buy Asus again!!!!!
The Quadfather
- Pros: Has everything you need. Really. I am impressed with all the doodads and options and how future proof the board is. It keeps cool too.
- Cons: Get a full tower. Tis a monster board.
- Other Thoughts: The fans are a tad noisy. Only option for Quad FX and I have nooo idea if this socket will ever get a quad core. I hope so.
