Cool an XGP port for certain motherboards
*I copied this post of mine from my main forum since I am sure there will be a greater response here*
I do not know how long this has been out since I haven't had the chance to view the latest computer stuff, but the main reason why I haven't upgraded to 64bit already is because of the 939pin motherboards that only have the PCI Express slots or AGP slots only. However I just noticed this motherboard that has an XGP Port (Xtreme Graphics Port) that allows use of most AGP cards but not all of them. That is great since I always like to buy things one at a time, that way I can see how much of a difference each upgraded device makes in performance then just buying everything at once and not realizing which component has the most noticeable increase in power. Here is a link to the motherboard that I found that has this and it is dirt cheap:

Only $80 dollars!! That is dirt cheap, however I may get the next one up since buying cheap stuff means cheaper quality.

Lol, so what's the difference?
All I see is that one has ST as initials and the other has UL.

I didn't look at the specs (busy doing something to worry about that) as I am sure you know different companies charge different prices for support, namebrand, etc.

Lol, ok. I'll wait for when you have time (yeah...right)
P.S. They have the same company.
Edit: Now that I've read my post, it seemed like I was insulting you. Didn't mean to phrase it that way. I meant when did you have free time? when i said yeah..right

Are they the same product on two different sites? Contact their customer service if you want to know the answer that is not my department

Lol, just wondering... yeah i'll do that eventually.
I hate contacting customer services when I don't plan to buy their products :p
For now, I'll just treat the first version as Super Toasty when the battery burns out and the second one Ultra Lamentation for when the motherboard dies prematurely

I did further research on it and the mobo sucks though, I planned on getting a nice one anyway.
