@_John_Lennon_ I looked at that mobo. Looks nice but I've been told to stay away from Biostar mobos. A good friend of mine has had trouble with his Biostar mobo. They wouldn't even RMA it. If I could find a comparable mobo from Abit or Epox at newegg, I consider it. But a company (Biostar) that won't stand behind their products isn't for me.

They have great reviews, and from my understanding if its DOA, newegg has awesome RMA policy.

But I will look around some more for u.

Thanks _John_Lennon_. I'm not worried about newegg at all. I'm concerned about Biostar's RMA policy.

Ahh, thats the thing though, most of the time you can just RMA it through newegg, and they will send you a new/reconditioned one!

Thats why their RMA policy rocks.

I know friends that send back their perfectly find moterhboards just because a new revision their model has come out, and been shipped to Newegg. Newegg sends them a new board, and if their lucky, its with the new revision they wanted!
