to be honest your probably better off selling what you got

and grabbing a Athlon II x2 240 regor 2-4 gigs DDR3 and an AM3 board to be honest as that would give u a butt load more performance

as 2 gigs DDR3 = $55
athlon II 240 = $55
785g AM3 board = 60

sell the ddr400 and the x2 for a bit of change and your only out about $100 for a much faster system overall

just thats an old old setup :toast: its lasted you good but if your gonna buy parts makes more sense to do a full swap

i know they are old but here in north cyprus its not easy to sell computer parts second hand. I dont want to throw them away so a new mobo is the only feasible way.
IGP of 785g is good enough too as it will be a HTPC. I got a spare 3650 or a 4850 if i ever need more power too...
Plus uniqueness of that mobo is what attracts me :)

Can you buy this board anywhere? I'd buy it in a heartbeat for my Opteron 170 if it were reasonably priced.

bump.

I really want to know if anyone knows about this motherboard. I can't find any reviews or anything even though it supposedly has been out since fall of 2009.

yeah i can find some on ebay.co.uk too. I will probably get one next month. Its the best option for as a replacement a8v-e cost around the same around here while having a really old chipset.
my 4200+ did 2.8ghz on a8v-e and i am really wondering how much it will oc on this board :)

Click to expand...

I asked one of the sellers on the UK eBay about shipping to the US. If the conversion rate and shipping don't end up being too crazy, I think I'll pick one up!
