They have a good engineering staff too and they can recommend and build the entire CPU/MB/RAM combo and test it for you.

Ouch, $342.14 for the board? Was hoping it was cheaper than BWI's $353.75. I guess I should be happy for the $11

Well this is definitely not a cheap board and shouldn't be used for budget systems. But if you can afford it, it is one of the best out there.

As long as it performs as advertised I definitely feel its worth it. Have you played with the HDMI output much? namely pumping 1080p to something? Do you know if the audio through HDMI works as well?

I haven't used it and I probably won't because I don't have a 1080p TV. I am not sure about the sound. Is there a way to tell by just looking at the connector?

No the connector is standard. It all depends on how they wired the HDMI setup. Thats not really a make-or-break for me, just a good thing to know before hand. Thanks though.

I have a DC (with Carnetix regulator) version of Commell LV-677 that when it worked booted full version of XP in 15 sec with dual channel 667 ram and a Core 2 Duo T7500.

See my post "No POST anymore on Commell LV-677 DC" you can see I have a a major unresolved issue. I am in Brizzy Mr Bean.

I remember that thread. I think you can pick up a replacement board for cheap off of ebay.
