ok, i am selling this (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16813136164) motherboard to a friend and i havent even used it yet. is the BIOS the same as the Lanparty series? i have the Lanparty Ultra-D and its awesome. how does it compare? ive also heard a lot of bad stuff about this mb as well. can anyone who has this mb or knows of it shed some light on this? thanks in advance!
No, different BIOS. In fact the Infinity series has major BIOS problems for me.

hmm...what kind of BIOS problems?
Temperature sensor is not only off like in the Expert/venus, it jumps around randomly.
No option for manual AGP/PCI aperture sizing (big problem because the NForce SATA has to operate in that memory, too).
No option for "power up on power reset" or "last state".
Vcore goes high but in so big steps it's useless.
No variable fan speed control (and junk fan).
ECC memory options present but not functional.
I think I had a few more that I posted on DFI-Street or might have in my notes files.
Not BIOS, but the position of the CPU sucks. Using a big HSF you cannot mount harddrives next to it in most tower cases.
