Quality stuff, worth the price i'd say.

Damages : 17.1"K"+ Rs.100 shipping.
From : PrimeAbgb.
PS : I am having issues with the BIOS, could anyone guide me to the best BIOS meant for the Gigabyte X58 UD5 Rev.1.0 motherboard please?

Is the board really worth 17k?

Thanks Appo ! I just hope the biostar mobo gets repaired. Ive asked Abacus to send it to taiwan for 1366 socket replacement.

Thanks G33k, thats a Thermalright IFX-14, form factor similar to the new king - the Noctua-D14.

@ Mohit : It really isnt worth 17k, imo should be around 15-16k, but then this motherboard was severely out of stock in most of the places.

no idea :p, never used the board in main rig, amey is using a ud3r atm in his rig with a cogage, he can tell the temps. am getting a new cpu+mobo combo in a couple of days, will post in show off :P
 
First attempt and voila! 4.2ghz (turbo) Although temps are on a higher side. Stable for 4 hours with Everest Stability tests.
