psd99, I have a spare Gigabyte GA700N Pro 2 you could have for £20.00 inc. postage by standard Royal Mail if you like.

I'll have to check out it's all Ok first but should be in a position to post it Monday or Tuesday if it proves good. It was working fine when I stored it a few months ago.

It has the box; CD; case back plate; manuals; 5.1 rear sound plate; 2 x USB2 port back plate; firewall socket backplate; one IDE and one floppy cable with it.

Socket A; latest Bios; USB2; 5.1 sound; firewire; onboard LAN; RAID.

hiya thanks u very much,
that would be so perfect

one thing could u give me a link please so i could fully see the specs?

I typed in the model number into google to get the link, but PC Review appears first on the list and then a loads of other posts by Floppy Can't see the specs on it.

 

[muckshifter]

NOT an exact match ... close enough ...

 

[psd99]

thanks guys


it does look good and Flopps = top man i brought something from him before and i was v impressed.

from the pics it seems that there is 5 or 4 pci slots this is most needed.

Floppy is out on the Town tonight ... so I would wait to see if that pick does resemble the MB.

This is just a guess, but do you think flops meant the GA7N400 Pro 2 and not the GA700N Pro 2.

I dont know but i cant find the own flops quoted on the Gigabyte website.

Heres the link to it.....

Hope that helps...

If it is that one, then twenny quid is an awesomely good bargain!

yer i know

best not get too excited yet, cuz hes not 100%

but yes thats grand of him definetly.

 

[V_R]

I aint sure and maybe wrong, but have a look at the Gigabyte site. Theres no mention of the GA700N Pro 2, and the one i quoted above is the closest to it.

 

[floppybootstomp]

Ok, here I be, sorry for the delay, went to a birthday party ina pub last night, have not done a damn thing today

Which means I haven't checked the board out yet. Tomorrow, I promise

Yes, it is a GA7N400 Pro 2 Revision 1, VR's link in post # 33 is correct.

Which saves me having to type out all the specs I guess

So, bear with me, I'll post on the outcome tomorrow evening.

B-a-r-g-a-i-n

 

[psd99]

no worries Flopps, in your own time theres no rush

 

[floppybootstomp]

Ok, finally fired the board up with a 1.1 Duron, Geforce 2 64Mb vidcard and 256Mb PC2700 RAM. All seems good. Pix attached.

So wotchoo wanna do?
