They are ~$70 cheaper or more, which is still pretty good.

You don't even need to "hack it" per say to get it to run a different map software. I have an old Mio with WinCE that I have running iGO8 and it works perfectly. With the 2009 Navteq maps (the ones Garmin use), it works SO much better. For the price, I might just go ahead and get one of these...

Hope that works out for you. I am currently running my 785G-E53 with Phenom x4 B55 in my HTPC. Using Splash Pro, it handles full 1080p with motion² and everything turned on. (Disabling hardware acceleration through ATI helps with smooth motion when using the on board 4200.) So far, this has...

Both of the 785G-E53 boards I got came with Bios 3.4. The utility I linked for Bsin explains step-by-step instructions on flashing outside of windows. If you can't borrow a chip from someone to flash the bios, you might be able to talk the repair center at microcenter into flashing it for you...

http://www.msi.com/index.php?func=prodcpu2&prod_no=1899&maincat_no=1 Looks that it supports the CPU with bios 3.5 or higher. (I would just go ahead and flash it to 3.6 as I have read some having issues with 3.5) I found a great tool for flashing here...

$50 now, kicking myself for not ordering it earlier... :-\ edit: No longer on sale.

I believe http://www.microcenter.com/single_product_results.phtml?product_id=0342511 is the best mobo in the combo option. The 1055T should wipe the floor with your 940, honestly. The 1055T will also OC better.

On the 785G-E53 motherboard, I had a ton of trouble trying to unlock my 555BE. I noticed that just turning on ACC would make my solid 2 cores crash (with the 3.6 bios). I reverted to the 3.2 bios (mine came with 3.4) and I am now happy to report that I am running 3 cores @3.8ghz (stock cooler)...

Same, mine was $109.99 + tax out the door with a 20MIR. So, basically they paid me $10 to buy the mobo. lol (The MSI 785G-E53.)

They had some OCZ Gold 2gb sticks on sale when I went in to pick up this combo for $54, so that's what I got.

Indeed it is. Nice board for the price. Same, it's a pretty great deal for the price. I haven't tried unlocking it yet, but I am running 3.74ghz on the stock cooler right now and am stress testing sitting at 50C. Wish I woulda picked up the 635 though. (Unless I can get it to unlock.)

Stumbled upon this the other day: Free mobo with Am3 processors. (Although, you have to go in to the store..) http://www.microcenter.com/specials/promotions/0810_AMDbundle.html Edit: Updated 8/12
