Anybody have any opinions about this mobo?

other than the fact that you won't be able to upgrade your processor much (2.8 cap) it looks like a solid board - pc2700 isn't the fastest ram but it's definitely fast enough - usb 2.0 and a 5.1 channel surround

if I were in the market I'd jump on this deal in a second

Sounds Good

The AMD retail boxed 2500+ Sempron by itself is priced at about $79 on many sites. Looks like this is a decent deal.

All i can say is it is better than my 800 mHz. :15::15::15:

Hmm...tempting. I believe this will be faster than my 800Mhz Celeron. :claps:

its a pretty good bet that the board is an ecs (aka pcchips, aka steaming pile of crap). the boards are poor performers and are a gamble.

Right now, it is backordered. I hope I still get one though!

For budget systems, I always want to see video/lan/audio onboard. The seperate cost of those can make it less attractive.

The tax that oupost charges to my state plus the cost of a cheap but decent graphic card (Mx 440) would make it around $120. That's plenty to buy a better system on pricewatch.
