Shops in Sim Lim Square, Singapore, sometimes list items which have yet to hit their stores in their pricelists to attract customers.

Audigy 2, AXP 2400+ and Pentium 4 3.06GHz CPUs are the recent list-before-it-arrives items they have listed.

Dreamie as you live there maybe you can check it out? I wont be down there until mid December (Xmas shopping!) - most of my current setup was bought in SLS - its way better than anything KL has to offer.

How come you guys are so interested in being guiney pigs, and paying for the privledge? Let everybody else get the first run boards, and wait for the next revision or two to pick one up. That way, all the bugs have been worked out AND they'll be cheeper!

Win-win!

Its called pioneering - no biggie each to their own - somebody has to be the first...

Well I have the hard copy of Cybermind's pricelist here and under "AMD Duron/Athlon Mainboard", I see 2 Leadtek boards.

Leadtek K7NCR18D (nForce2-S/AGP8X/DDR+400+LAN [goes out of the paper ] ) $219 (In Singapore dollars)
Leadtek K7NCR18D (nForce2-ST/1394+LAN) $249

I expect prices to rise around Xmas time.

Cheers!

edit: Cybermind is the appointed Athlon Center in Singapore, though I have heard lots of people from other forums complaining about the bad RMA service this shop provides. They dun even have 2400+. Their highest end AMD CPU is the 2200+
