Epox 8RDA3+ vs. 8RDA3I at Newegg

[rockinjohnnyg]

I just got an 8RDA3I from Newegg rev3.1 and it has a coax digital out port where one of the COM ports would normally be. The manual that came with the board (rev3.0 11/06/03) is for 8RDA3 boards and shows the coax dig out port as a standard feature as opposed to (optional).

My question is does the 8RDA3+ now have a coax dig out port standard also? Newegg's pics show that neither board has it. If anyone has bought either of these boards from Newegg recently, please let me know if yours has a coax dig out port on it.

I am thinking about buying another M/B (one of these two) but definitely don't want the 8RDA3+ if it doesn't have the coax dig out port on board (I don't want to have to buy the S/PDIF add-on card).

The 8RDA3 series are all very similar. In fact many times we use the same manual with notations of optional for features only present a specific version. EP-8RDA3I is the base model, while the other two add additional features. EP-8RDA3+ also has the coaxial audio port.

We carry three models.

-NVIDIA nForce2 Socket A with audio, IEEE1394, SATA, LAN (EP-8RDA3+)

-NVIDIA nForce2 Socket A with audio, IEEE1394, LAN (EP-8RDA3G)

-NVIDIA nForce2 Socket A with audio, LAN (EP-8RDA3I)
