oh and also what's the difference between the A8N32-SLI Deluxe and the A8N-SLI Premium and the A8N-SLI Deluxe? because i'm starting to think that the A8N32 is a little too expensive.

A8N32-SLI has dual 16x PCI Express slots, more heatpipe cooling on the chip next to CPU, slightly different PCI arrangement. IMO the A8N32-SLI Deluxe is a inferior board, it's slower and the slot arrangement messes with PCI. The A8N-SLI Deluxe is AFAIK the A8N-SLI Premium with with a standard HSF, apparently the fans are quite flaky. I would go for the A8N-SLI Premium.
