Sorry it wasn't NiB i opened the box that was sealed and inside is an A8N-E, so a 939 Nforce4 Ultra

So a sealed box had the wrong motherboard in it? Doesn't really seem very legit 😕

Whats missing in your collections?

I picked one up from Goodwill missing the NB heatsink. Ended up setting it up for a friend witb a 2.0ghz Opteron, 2gb of DDR400 and a Geforce 7600. Seemed to perform pretty well. Nvidia chipset, dual channel DDR400, pciex16 and x4 slots, built in RAID and pretty decent audio.
