    If your thinking of buying a A7N8X soon....

    DON'T!

    I know a friend who is in the puter business, and has had recent notifications from dabs, amd etc that the price of that motherboard and a few others are going to plummet after the release of half life 2...(22%)

    This is because alot of new technology will being released in that time.

    Just when is half life 2 out? September 31st?


    I don't know if i can wait

    It isn't anything to do with hl2, its because AMD are releasing the Athlon 64, and I doubt it will make the price plummet as much as that guy makes it out that it will, as the first Athlon 64 motherboards are going to be very expensive, and the A7N8X will be phased out. There will be a small decrease in price, but not a sharp fall. Sorry.

    how about just not buying one at all and get a nf7-s

    If you get a customer, or an employee, who thinks he's Charles Bronson, take the butt of your gun and smash their nose in.
