AOpen MK79G

AOpen MK79G-N


Those looks better than what Biostar has offer plus probably better customer supports from AOpen too. I wonder if MK79 series will make it to the US market here.

Looks great, I'd love to have one provided it offers the unlocking of T-breds like most full ATX N-Force 2 boards do. It would make for a great file-server machine with an underclocked/volted T-Bred, is the Biostar version available here already? What exactly would make you want the AOpen over the Biostar? Just trying to gather info. .

Forget the file server! Put that uATX nForce2 in a tiny case and you gots'yerself a portable gaming rig with decent enough onboard video for a LAN party. Need more than ~ MX-440? Add a 3D card (read: 9700!) But that mobo in the smallest case you can put around it would be self-contained. No cards needed. And a LOT less expensive than a Shuttle cube!
