AK38N

Came across this board for £30 new. I am thinking of buying it for a replacement for my current board. I also have a XP2000+ to drop in. Is it a good board? What kind of performance increase should I expect over the A7V133?

I have the board and cant complain about it.

It does lack the overclocking features of Shuttle's more full featured board, but with a KT333 chipset it is fairly scalable. I use it in one of our servers, and so far it has been a stable board without any glitches. For the price I dont have anything to complain about minus the lack of a full featured BIOS.

Does it come with the USB header for the additional 4 ports?

hm, cant remember for sure. I dont use much USB. It does have 4 on the back though if I remember correctly.
