That's the exchange rate's fault!


I wouldn't have bought it if it was the equivalent of $500.  (I found it in a 'week only sale too!' )

No, it's being-in-the-middle-of-the-freaking-ocean's fault.

Took alot of advice from people on here! [/asskiss]


Erm..... I'm not planning on going SLI, so this is a great board for just one gfx.


Also I wanted one which supported the PC2-8500 (@ 1066Mhz) RAM.



It was well recommended with lots of great reviews!


+ you can't say no to those colours!

That motherboard looks hilarious. Hahaha.....am i the only one? I guess it reminds me of some lego building. Must be good at what it does though.

I'd buy my own stuff and build my own PC, but only if they made Barebones PC with a PSU/MOBO/CPU already there and let me buy everything else.
