How are Biostar boards now-a-days?

Saw they have a nForce4 board with SLI and SATA-II for very cheap...

I have a biostar now and It's awesome, hasnt given me any trouble I only have an Nforce 3 though. The only thing I didnt like is they only give you one dual device IDE cable, I'm sure everyone has one lying around but they should just throw in another.

Not concerned about IDE cables... I have a rats nest of them. But, what boars are yours Hellfire? Real detailed info you gave up there! Laughing

I may try this board, and review it, unless I can find some dirt on it. Maybe a Venice chip like Spire's, too...

OK, if they are a year or more old, they aren't nforce4 or anything else too new to compare well... thanks!

Yea, they are older...the HTPC was built just before I started coming around here. My son's PC is maybe 6months oldler than that one. Both are AMD XP 2500/2800's
