Are my eyes right? Since when did BFG start making motherboards? Anyways, just thought I'd let y'all know.

Looks identical to the Chaintech board. Thanks for the link.

I wonder if they'll come out with a OC version that overclocks your CPU by default.

Good eye, man. The PCBs are very similar, right down to component placement and layout.

I made a thread about the BFG mobo a couple days ago, here.

they have been rebadging fortron psu's, now chaintech mobo :disgust:

why don't they just stick to the video cards which they are good at?

Zactly. Looks like they rubbed off the Chaintech logo and put theirs on it.

Huh?

They put a fan on the chipset, too-- if it's the Chaintech.

Edit: The PCB and ram slots are different colors, but the capacitors look the same. Hmn.

Edit Again:

It also costs 2x the Chaintech o.o

If it's indeed a rebadged Chaintech then it's a rip-off.
I agree with Snowice, they should stick with making video card.
Unless they can offer something new which they aren't.

Actually... I didn't think so before, but now it looks identical to the newest Chaintech VNF4 Ultra I got (the newest revision puts a fan on the chipset)!
