someone said it had problems, but anandtech gave it a great review. anything i should know about this board? would i be better going with the epox?
 
Someone says everyboard has problems. The only thing I've heard about the Chaintech is that they've been slow to release BIOS updates. If you're not gonna OC, and you want a budget board, the one in my sig can't be beat.

I'm "satisfied" with mine, but I'd much rather have the Epox if it was available. Main reason why I got it was because I couldn't wait anymore. I suppose if you're looking for a cheap, no-thrills overclocking nForce3 250, this is as good as it gets.
 
Go with the Epox board that was in that article. It is only a few bucks more and has better features (it is a 250gb not just 250 board). Also, I believe that it overclocks better than the Chaintech one, at least base on the review.
