Sapphire PI-AM2RS690MHD

[Treripica]

I'm just curious to see if anyone's had any experience with this board and know of any issues besides the Teapo caps.

IME, sapphire video cards are pretty reliable, while their motherboards are not, for the most part.

I just has a sapphire x800gto2 died and I read the RMA process takes over 4 weeks....

They actually did a good job on this particular motherboard. I do not like the x1 PCIe location but overall after the last BIOS update, the board has responded very well. The price needs to come down as charging a premium for the white color combination is not a wise move in this market sector.

I surely don't like paying the extra for it, but it's already on back-order at ZZF as of 5/23/07. Is anyone else carrying this board?
