word of caution.. I got mine from these guys 8/1/05.

- Their website in NOT secure (SSL) when entering CC info
- The packaging was not the same as the pics from new package design, like newegg (inside everything was good, except old bios)
- The receipt name shows something other then cheapguys.com, so rebate validation may be difficult.

Other then that my motherboard came brand new in retail packaging and is working great.....

What about the no SSL support for entering CCs. I don't have access to one time use CCs so I think I will pass. Pity.

Looks to be retail.

Is this one of the best overclockable 939 mobo's with AGP?

I got in on that $229 ATI AGP card & have the Venice core chip from another deal but I want to take it to the limits.

Thanks. :)

uwannawhat,

I got the same deal on the x800XT PE and a A64 3000+, I have zero problems with the NEO2 K8N.

I have the 3000+ overclocked 1.8 @ 2.55 at 1.5V with a XP90 cooler

Working out very well.

Usuaully Mwave's shipping is a little cheaper than what we claim on the site, and they are a little more reliable than "cheapguys.com"

Kristopher

Well, it is $123. 50 ( Fedex ) at Newegg vs ~$125 ( UPS GRD ) at Mwave ...


I'm sure I can find some more higher prices if anyone is interested..

What is " a little more reliable " ? Mwave's ' Reseller Rating ' is a " little more " lower than Cheapguys..


I'll post back if I have any problems...

Just saw that myself.. I was going to cancel at Cheapguys, but it had already shipped.


I'm still not feeling too bad at $80 after rebate..

Most refurbs from Newegg , in my experience, come as full retail .. Be interested to know how yours comes.. Here's hoping you get the whole shebang ..:thumbsup:

Not clear what you are saying..

Did he order and pay for a retail, but end up with a bare refurb?

Did they take care of it ?

Sounds like newegg sent the wrong item (refurbed instead of retail as ordered).

I just ordered a refurb from the egg as well. My past experience with newegg refurbs has always been just a white box oem board (I've bought 3 so far) They have all worked fine though save one where I got a little too high on an overclock. lol :D Killed it!

I'm throwing the dice though & hopefully I'll break my trend on refurbs.

To track your order call 407 936 0237

This is the warehouse. They will give you tracking number.. They shipped the next day after I ordered.
