good deal

#1: yeah, that combo really sells it. I always wanted a flyer insert, and now I can get one, free!

BTW: be sure to read the reviews on the flyer insert: http://www.newegg.com/Product/ProductReview.aspx?Item=N82E16800995080

Where is the $45 price??

I see $49.99.

#3 - Thank your lucky stars... Don't cheap out on a personal mobo.
ECS sub-standard pared with date 6100 IGP, while 50% Eggview for the board and that flyer (normally a penny) touting their service and support clinch the deal.
What a piece of Goodwill fodder!

ECS, a notch above Jetway

6100 isn't a problem for the basic office box this is meant to build, but ECS bodes ill for bugs and longevity. Price was already $49.99 yesterday #3, at the bottom of the barrel you're better off looking at boards from Foxconn or Asrock but not their absolute lowest end either.

Best deal is probably a ~ $45 780G chipset board like Asus, Gigabyte, from Newegg's refurbs section if you can deal with issues like lack of a rear I/O plate, likely no other accessories.
