I just got an A8N-E board. It's my first with an Nvidia chipset (been
using Via based boards before). I want to use the latest Nvidia drivers.
Nvidia has these drivers listed on their site (which do I need to
download?):

audio driver package
unified driver
Nvidia nTune
nforce4 standalone kit

On A8N-SLI Deluxe, I use the nForce4 Standalone Kit 6.53 (without
NVFirewall and IDE driver) for about a month.

Works fine so far.

ActiveAmour and NVfirewall are useless.
Nvidia firewall slows down LAN speed to about 300KByte/sec and DHCP does
not work.
(See recent "NVfirewall on A8n-SLI Deluxe" postings)

You should use the drivers posted on the Asus website for your MB if you
need an update. For my A8N-E I used the drivers that came with Asus
installation CD. There is a new bios update on the website, but I have not
installed it yet.

You should install the Cool & Quiet drivers and set up the configuration as
described in the User Manual. This is a great feature that reduces power and
heat output when not needed, but instantaneously ramps up to full speed when
needed.
