its an oldish mobo, but its damn good. it overclock nicely, and its got onboard USB2, 10/100 lan and sound. its yours for £10.

im selling it DOA. the board will load up and everything, but whenever i tried to install any operating system, i got masses of trouble. it could have just been a hardware conflict

i throw in a fan aswell (just some generic Akasa one) and some thermal paste (akasa again)

Socket A (Athlon, Athlon XP, Duron, Sempron) if I'm not mistaken. The name is similar to my A7N8X-X, so...

Technically, it's called 462. Although some pins are redundant. :p
