Newegg on refurbs almost NEVER if EVER includes cables... and I mean important cables that are proprietary to the motherboard you can't purchase anywhere. Be warned.

Just FYI, ASUS will directly sell you complete accessory packages for refurbished motherboards (and the 3-year warranty is fully intact from them). In example, the ASUS A8N SLI Premium accessory package is $40 shipped.

Never heard of proprietory cables for motherboards that were important. Let me see, to get one working, all you need is IDE/SATA cables, power supply, front headers to turn it on, that's it.

I've always gotten all cables and components from EVERY refurb I've ordered from Newegg. Now, if all refurbs I've ordered would work, that would be awesome ;)

I'm 50/50 with videocards...and also one successful mobo purchase.

Yup, No Cables, no I/O back panel, and sometimes a few jumpers are missing. But I did get the Asus A8N-SLI Deluxe for $60 3 months ago at Chief Value and I am not complaining, such a good deal and it is still running fine.
