If there are no takers, can I have the mobo? (PC is skt 478 atm ) Considering this is in-community, I'll be more than happy to make a server donation in lieu of payment. Maybe the others can do the same? Considering Luke is so good to be giving away kit? Dunno, just a thought. But I'll do it. I'm sure there's a donation link somewhere..

K, slight hickup, the processor is not compatible with the motherboard. Cpu Intel Core 2 Quad Extreme Edition QX9775 "LGA771 Yorkfield" 3.20GHz (1600FSB)
But i didnt realise its socket 771, not 775 bloody confusing since its called qx9775, so i'll have to send the cpu back and try to pick up the 775 version which isnt in stock with no eta.
Oh well. i can use my e6600 until the new cpu is in stock
