I have a small stash of mobo's floating in the garage at home.

I will have a look when I get home, if you find something in the meantime, nifty - if not and I have one, you can have it, the missus will be stoked to have one more bit of junk gone.

Socket 478 boards seem to be geting hard to get ahold of lately.

I can supply Rambus ram if the above board will suit.

Socket 423 was the 1st generation P4, they only existed for a relatively short time before they brought out the socket 478. They are unfortunatley completele incompatible.

Got any 512mb sticks? I have a PC that only has 1gb of rambus (4x256) and could really use more :-)

**bungbung** · 27th March 2007, 16:52

Sorry, only 128meg sticks (or 64)

i have a 478 board here. Dont know where I pulled it out of. I assume it is good cause I have still got it but got no chip to put it on. You can have it if you want to pick it up.

Intel chipset
onboard POS VGA

I've got a brand new Albatron PX865PEC Pro board - was bought in error.
FSB1000+Mhz, Dual DDR400+, AGP8x (no O/b video - that was the error), LAN, serial ATA + IDE, 8x USB2, 6 channel audio. It's been powered on once.

Offers?

socket A is for AMD chips. You probably looking more for a socket 479

**Wasp** · 27th March 2007, 23:49

well i pulled the machine apart tonight before temptation gave in and we all went for a blat

cpu is a celeron 2.4, ram is 1 stick of 512 dr pc2700 (so i guess its 333 mhz) and another 512 of 400mhz (current mainboard doesnt suppport this - yes ive already tried taking it out...)

and stupidly I realised the case and board are micro atx

sigh.....

whats the brand/model of that board you've got coyboys? aj is going through your way in the weekend
