Yep, I found that one as well and have likewise decided against trying it. The thing is that the mobo seems to support the FX60 which is dual core....so why the hell won't it support the 4800? :confused:

The information on ASUS's web site is incorrect. The A8V-E Deluxe board
DOES
support dual core X2's. Version 1009 of the BIOS is all you need.
Somewhat confusing!

The thing is that I have a 4800 turning up sometime today from Dabs and I don't know if I should just refuse to sign for it and send it back now :mad:

You could give Asus a call on +886-2-2890-7121 and ask them... if anyone should know, it's them.

Just found a German number for motherboard support... +49-2102-9599-0. Might be easier to get hold of them.
