There are reports now that the more recent retail boards do not have this cut. As you can see, the AN7 has a lot to offer, much of it due to the feature set of the nForce2 Ultra chipset. Of course, taking advantage of that potential requires the right equipment, and that starts with the motherboard. DRAM ratios and a whopping 3.
