Conclusion:
Overall the Asus M4N72-E is a solid board which overclocks fairly well, if not as well as Asus' ATI counterparts, has some great features such as 8+1 phase power for better overclocking, support for Socket AM3 and AM2+ processors and SLI support. The latter, SLI support, is likely to be the main draw for this motherboard as the GeForce GTX 260 cards with 216 cores do offer a good value and if you want to go very high-end Nvidia is the fastest on that scale by a hair. Otherwise though you might get a better overclock out of ATI chipset based motherboards and also better integrated graphics. Still, Asus continues to have a board for almost every situation and if you are looking to go AMD and do SLI then this is a great fit.

Pricing:

You can pick up this board for $129, which is a good deal for a SLI, full ATX motherboard with support for Socket AM3.
