Title: Thanks DarkAngel
Post by: Dewey on November 30, 2005, 10:34:34 AM
As some of you may know I bought a mobo of DarkAngel, which had some of the bits missing when he sent them to me.  

However I just wanted to say its all sorted now, DarkAngel generously ordered me a brand new mobo (good quality one too) from Dabs which arrived yesterday at work - which I wasn't expecting.

So now I have the dilema... do I keep the Abit fatality (already installed) with a few of the bits missing ie guru panel or do I install the shiney new AN8 SLI which has passive cooling, all the manuals and bits etc... choices choices... advice please  :D  (nice dilema to have)

actually if you got a soundcard then go an8, else stick with onboard sound with the abit.. or something like that.. if you don't care then go with an8

Well both boards come with 7.1 sound card (on a daughterboard), though I don't use as I have a ZS Audigy.

i thought the fatal1ty had the nice sound card endorsed by fatal1ty.. well anyways i guess the passive cooloing could make it that little bit quieter 8-)

You might be thinking of the Fatality endorsed xi-fi, costs about 150 quid though!  :blink:
