Hi,

I know this isn’t a marketplace but I’m looking for a Asus VL/I 486SV2GX4 motherboard. Any advice other than eBay on where to find one of these things? I’m willing to pay top dollar but I’m having difficulty finding a single one for sale on the entire planet.

Thanks.

Or try local selling sites, though chances for finding anything as specific as that are going to be pretty slim.

Sorry, I know this does not help much... but as these others stories go, it seems to be just random luck these days... 🙁

Why do you want this specific motherboard so much?

I've got probably around 30 or so socket 3 motherboards and I cannot fathom spending that much for a motherboard.

Maybe put your name on the list at DreamHardware:

Edit:
Here is the non X4 model which may be able to be converted to the X4 version:
