I've built several msi based rigs this year: two k7n2-l rigs, one k7n420pr rig and a k7n2d-l rig. ALL are still running just fine... no fire yet

Hey don't knock MSI motherboards. They are really solid/stable boards with some potential to OC. A side from what I hear about MSI's Kt8 Neo or whatever board that is that randomly starts on fire.........

That looks pretty fubar. May be you will be able to make a giant keychain or something...........HEY!! At least stripe the board of her guts & take some heatsinks & jumpers, oh don't forget the bios chip!
