They were 1.45v last night when in stock, but I don't remember the code # markings.

Great price ... also, I second the AN35 ... its a great board .. I've always been an Abit/Asus/Tyan/Epox Person before this ... but I have added Shuttle to my list of mobo producers that I really like.

On Monday I brought a AMD Barton 2500+ CPU and a ABIT NF7 motherboard from Staples, (phone-in order), by using the Ingram Micro Electonics warehouse item numbers to order the both items through Staples, I then had Staples price match at 110%, both item to the prices at Newegg.com, and after adding a FAR item to my order to reach $150 I used a $30 off $150 Staples coupon.

My total same to $121 + $10 Ca. taxes (8%), if I had brought these item from Newegg.com the cost would have been $152 + $12 Ca. taxes.

I'm hoping this will still work! Great deal!

Anyone can do it, The Staples item # for the AMD Athlon XP 2500+ is "#IM1856982" and for the ABIT NF7 motherboard (this is not the NF7-S version) "#IM1C45737".

There's a thread over on FW on where to find Staples/Ingram Micro Electonics warehouse item numbers, but the $30 coupon I use is no longer working, so you would have to find another working coupon.
