It‘s not some no-name cheap board, it's one Leadtek board. Leadtek was nvidia's closest partner back in the days(after ELSA quited,perhaps still today,as Leadtek produces nvidia Quadro cards for asian market.)

@@magictuxcn interestingly these WinFast motherboards were not made by leadtek like the gpus. They were made by Foxconn, which is a cheaper manufacturer from experience.

@@centigrams you're right! I remeber those nforce/nforce2 boards from leadtek ,really high end in my memory, like DFI boards.

The board has 5 years of usage.
