I'd say that is a good price, considering it is d(funny e)ll she is trading with. She didnt get ripped off![]()

Well, I made the upgrade and I'd say the bottleneck is now gone- my pc flies now.
The only thing I'd mention is that this mobo is apparently very picky about RAM. I ordered 1gig of Kingston (2x512MB) and it runs fine, but with my other PC3200 mixed in it only sees it as 166Mhz instead of 200(runs fine at 200Mhz in another machine and cpu-z IDs it as 3200). It has a list of preferred RAM in the manual and I'd recommend sticking to it... No matter, I'll just order in another gig of the Kingston.![]()

Many congratulations, Xihaou. Which CPU did you pick to go with your shiny new mobo?
I went with the Athlon64 3200+
Just to give an idea of the improvement that yielded- my 3dMark05 scores went from 3dMark/CPUMark of 4367/2206 to 4904/3887. I'm obviously seeing big jumps in gaming framerates as well- Battlefield 2 has gone from the 20-40fps range to 50-70.![]()
