First impression: looks like a CNPS 7000 AlCu that's been in a fight! Looks good though, and must be quiet. Does lack the ducting of the arctic coolers though, like operandi said, so more hot air blowing around.
In the UK there's barely £10 between the GA-K8NF-9 brand new and the best nforce3 boards second hand (MSI Neo2 platinum). With the GA-K8NF-9 and PCI X the better graphics cards are less, so you pay the same for slighty better performance and more future capabilites!
What other features are missing, if overclocking isn't important. SATA300 only going to run at 300 with expensive HDs.
In this price range would it still be better to get a nforce 3 mobo (Neo2platinum etc) to have 2Ghz HT with AGP graphics?
