Some folks have had better luck with the Biostar 6100, but I have no experience with either. Newegg probably has both. The Biostar is cheaper, and comes in 2 models. Newegg also has the asus a8n-vm with the same chipset for $47 shipped as a refurb, without accessories such as the backplate. Some get lucky and get the accessories, but mine have all been bare boards only.
