For $200.00 I think I'd just order a new board from NEWEGG and keep a spare.

EEEK... 100 posts... guess I need to get to posting. Although other than a few posts about my Thermalright HR-03Plus on my 8800GTS I hadn't really posted in these forums for about a year. Or two.

But yeah... $15.00 is reasonable.

NOTE: I Contacted DFI:
They didn't specificaly say: but it seems that it is possible that Sandra corrupted the bios. The technician said:
"And if you are going to run old non-updated for 790FX chipset programs, you need to disable monitoring or checking of SMBUS or you will have problems. Sandra has been notorious for that for 7 or 8 years now and one reason I moved completely away from Miss Sandra."
(Although he doesn't say if a corrpupted bios is part of "problems" you might have. Besides... they really need to just fix that. If Sandra and Speedfan can cause a corrupt bios.. something is AWRY.)
