BIOSTAR M7NCG 400 Question

Does anyone know if *both* M7NCG and M7NCG 400 have firewire headers on the board? The manual / specs say so for the non-400 model. But vendor ads for the 400 version don't mention firewire, yet the manual seems to show a header. My head hurts :\

Any owners out there?
 
Hi BFG9000 🙂 Here's nVidia's handy compilation of nForce2 boards (and other nForce-family too):

http://nvidia.com/object/motherboards.html

The MCP-T southbridge features Firewire. The plain MCP southbridge doesn't. So you can pretty much nail down whether they can have Firewire by whether they have the MCP-T or not.

Granted, a mobo manufacturer could tack on a PCI-based Firewire controller on an MCP board, but off the top of my head I don't remember seeing any like that. So I'm pretty sure the M7NCG 400 doesn't have Firewire. Hope that helps some 🙂
 
I have one that I'm trying to sell. no it doesn't have firewire AND if you are looking for OC options make sure you don't get he new version 7.0 that most vendors seemto be spitting ut
 
I have the M7NCG. It has both firewire and good sound. The M7NCG-400 is the newer/replacment version that uses the ghetto version of southbridge which without the firewire or nvidia dolby 5.1 sound.
