I want to buy a DFI LanParty Ultra-D, i discover that this board comes with some kind of sound device that seems realy great. But is this board comes with a network device too ? I mean, does i need to buy a good network card or this mb can do the job for me ? I read some review but don't found anything about that... But there's a seller in a computer store that told me that some mb comes with network device. My computer will be a gaming beast so im planing on doing a lot of LAN party... Need advice again guys :D

Thank you. :)

    Even better yet. It comes with 2 Gigabit Lan's!!! :D

    So you not only get 10/100 you get 10/100/1000 (X2).

    It doesn't get anybetter than that. :cool:

    There are also 6X USB2.0 onboard w/ 4 more via the mobo header and 1394 Firewire onboard.

    4X SATA-II along with the 2 channel (4 device) PATA all which are capable of being used in RAID.

    These boards totally rock!!!

    Not only do you not have to buy one network card, you can use your pc as a simple router for internet connection sharing by simply hooking up to broadband on nic #1 enabling I.C.S. and hooking a switch up to nic #2 and running the internet out to all your other pc's via the switch.

    I know that doesn't impress most people but being able to save the 80 bucks a router would cost me impresses the heck out of me. ;D
