Looks good:

Abit NF8 Mainboard for S754 nForce3 250GB,SATA,GbLAN,ATX,Raid,uGuru

I guess Abit changed their minds about not making an NForce3 board. I just hope they use the NForce3's onboard gigabit and firewall.

Who sells the DFI Lanparty board over here BTW?

What's this "250GB" business all about?

[daniel_owen_uk]

Think its the chipset, there was 150gb too iirc.

Yeh but what does the 150GB, 250GB etc mean Why GB?

Wow@ Lanparty price! Might as well get that then in all honesty, unless the Abit brings something special to the table.

Howard, there are two flavours of NForce 3 250, the plain one and the GB. The GB has onboard Gigabit and an (apparently impressive) hardware firewall. I think it might have firewire or something like that as an extra too.

Oh right, thanks for clearing that up

Wow@ Lanparty price!

bear in mind that this doesn't come with a FrontX, case grip etc. like the LanParty nF2 boards do.

Kustom do it as well (mine came from them).

Yeah, apparently the Lanparty-UTs are the replacement for the Infinity series I.E. the full on hardware but without the toys.

I don't need a gear grip or FrontX, but I don't have £170 to spend on a new board + processor in any case.
