@TheMask: The SK8N supports only the Opteron and the AMD 64 FX series both of which are socket 940. How will this dude install a socket 754 AMD 64 on it ??

Right on mate. I just looked at the price and even though i saw the model number, i just assumed it was a socket 754 board. I still cant believe u get a socket-940 board that cheap!!!

lol.. i am not as well informed as u think mate.. i screwed up.. sorry :).. Blade is right. that mobo wont support the socket-754 CPU i had mentioned in my earlier post. Hey, why dont u wait for the board to arrive and then let us know.. coz i still cant believe the price for the Asus SK8N to be soooo low!!

Well Guys !!!!! I have a good news and a bad one for you.........
:) The good news is the board has arrived and its the same board...So now i gotta hunt for Athlon 64 Processor....
But The bad news is the price of the board is really that....i just happened to search for baazee and there i found the board i got is just the right price... :-( no real bargain or good deal i got there ....just follow this link to the baazee.....the post is about the processor but just scroll down and u will find the question and answer section where the seller clearly mentions the price of the board in the same category....viz GA KA 8V 800 and MSI K8N for around the same price...
So the final output is though i got the board i didint actually get the profitable deal as i thoguht....anyway one thing i quite clear....we really overestimate the price ....the technology we think is pricey may not always be...one gotta hunt...

2) A Stupid A266Mx ( Very incompatible even after updating the bios ) Asus
Board
3) 512 ( 266 Mhz ) Ram......
