    Is this a bargain or for the bin?

    Just visited PC World as my sister wanted to get a new desk. As I walked in I looked at the bargain table and saw an EPoX motherboard.
    Its an EPoX 8RDA+ With NForce 2 Ultra 400. It was £80 and now its £40.
    Any info about the board, worth me getting or not bothering?
    Cheers

    Hmm, i don't really need the board, just thought it was a bargain and worth getting because it was the only one left.

    I have a V2.1; it won't do 200FSB and I kind of wish I'd bought a board with SATA TBH.

    NF7 series seems to me to be rock solid. Enough options for overclockers, and stable enough for people - like u're sister I presume - that will want it running, and working for years. It MIGHT be worth the extra £10 - shipping etc - to get the long term warranty of a new board. Sometimes these pc world deals remove warranty.. it should say on the box though.
