Hello,

Digging in my computer history I came across a Mainboard of which I can't even remember having it...
Even worse, I have no clue as to make and model.
Can you identify it?

I have a strong leaning towards ASUS, it looks like a TX97-LE or ASUS P/I-P55T2P4 (but that doesnt correspond with the BIOS-battery' and Chip / Slot location)

I know for sure that I've had an ASUS TX97-XE, but I guess would have been a replacement for this one.
All this time I thought it was the TX97-XE on this photo. But it's not.

regards,
Martijn.

That might be a PCChips. That yellow "BURN-IN 24HR" sticker was usually their thing.

EDIT: Found it, you had a PCChips M550.

Well that's a fast and clear answer.

I figured that might be something to recognise. I had no idea what it said on that sticker.

I would have never guessed that make and model. Doesn''t even ring a tiny bell.
Thank you so much for finding it.

Martijn.
