Any info about the new ecs mobo with xpress 200 chipset?

Exactly what kind of info are you looking for? I doubt there will be many reviews of it since it is a budget board. I personally would love to see the sapphire board that was demoed come to market, that thing is slick!
 
The only things I noticed were that the ECS has only 2 slots for ram....the MSI RS480 has 4 slots. Also, the MSI has a better audio solution IIRC, coaxial outs, etc...I'd still go for the MSI over the ECS, or wait and see if any other manufactures decide to go with ATI for their chipsets. I'd be interested in building an AMD rig for my next gaming system if we start to see more of these boards by the time I'm ready. Nvidia has been the main reason I've stayed with Intel all this time...don't like VIA much either...
 
I downloaded the manual, and the board has some overclocking options, including cpu voltage and fsb. But the manual doesn't tell you the range of adjustments.
