I couldn't decide between these two manboards. I am planning to use 2500 barton CPU and SATA harddrive. Although MSI has some extra accessories ASUS seems to have a better stability. As I am not planning to overclock the system, which one would be better? Thanks alot in advance...

I've got a couple of the K7N2 Delta-L's and they run just fine. I overclock so I get some flaky behavior occasionally, usually on bootup, once going they are rock solid. I don't have the ILSR model so I can't comment on those features.

Overall, I think both boards are good. Some of the early Asus boards gave people some problems, but I think those problems are fixed by now.

Both are very good, but ABIT NF7-S v2.0 is the best
