Ever hear the saying 'when it rains it pours'?

I lost 2 motherboards in ONE day (socket 939 and 754). 

Help me from going to the dark side!  Anyone have a decent socket 939 board to sell?  Any DDR Ram?

I feel kinda uncomfortable only having 5 systems left Smiley

I have an ECS K8T890-A version 1.0a and an AMD Athlon X2 3800+ with the stock AMD cooler that I'm not using.  Technically they belong to my dad, so give me an offer for either or both and I will run it by him.

Hey thanks, I ended up purchasing an Epox 9NPA+ Ultra thru eBay for $45 shipped.

I'm amazed at how well the price on skt 939 parts are holding up, including x2's, Opterons, boards, heck even DDR.  Eventually the limiting factor is going to come down to motherboards.  They're the most scarce.

Giving some serious thought to parting out a few of my systems.  With resale values being what they are the upgrade cost shouldn't be too bad, plus I'm still sitting on 12 gigs of high performance DDR2 that newegg isn't even selling anymore.
