Good luck. These boards are incredibly hard to come by. When you do find them, they're overpriced because of their rarity. My advice? Get something newer.

The one Copacetic has is DDR3 with onboard display - My board that packed up is DDR3

The one the Neoprod has is DDR2 without onboard display (discreet)

Lets see what Koosi wants - the DDR2 or DDR3 one ?

The one copacetic has, is the one I am after, if the OP doesn't take it.
And yes, I do work with 2nd hand or "old" computers.

OT on...
I just wish the forum management would realize this and start either a separate forum like carbonite, or improve the one here.
I would offer my time to help admin it...

Carbonite sucks, too many petty little rules and other chummy chummy BS

OT off

EDIT... how much you want for yours Neoprod?

Are you going to take the CPU also? Will check at home if it posts and report back...I packaged it pretty carefully when I put it away 4 years ago :eek:

Won't be asking anything beyond post and packaging.

Just pm me the prices, might be interested in both.

copacetic should auction of his board though just for the heck of it.

Feel like kicking my own ass though, since I want to build a test PC and a bought a Q9550 to do so, which means DDR2 would be better for testing, but the DDR3 LGA 775 simply too tempting.

I will however soon not really have a shortage of CPUs and DDR2 ram.

I found it but too tired after work to test it. Will let you guys know tomorrow after work.

With CPU and DDR2 still mounted...seemed the safest place to leave them.

Which CPU is it, I have heaps of old Pentium IV, I have even tried to make one into a keychain, so if you have a Core 2 Duo or above I will gladly take it.

Q6600 - the G0 stepping and 4x 1Gb OCZ Platinum DDR2 (800Mhz). The machine had a Coolit ALC Eco water cooler which is also spare if someone wants that...there's a Hyper TX3 air cooler lying around also.

I should have done more with this stuff instead of just putting them into the cupboard.

Make my second-favourite CPU into a keychain and we may have words :twisted:

My 2500k now occupies the throne...probably till next year when I think about getting some Skylake action.

Found some time to test the board etc...all looks good. If anyone's still interested, I would prefer to give them away as a package (mobo, memory, CPU, cooler).

I could still really do with one, having hard time finding one that can be shipped.
Most of them seem to be out of my reach.

I might of gone a bit overboard on purchasing some old DDR2 ram and they need to be tested.
