EVGA Z97 FTW

[electroball09]

So I have the ability to pick this up for $90, should I do it?

 

I really want at least 2-way SLI for 980's, and this board covers it.  It really has everything I'm looking for, but when I googled "evga z79 ftw review" most of what I got were at the very least neutral, but mostly negative.  Newegg reviews are the opposite.

 

Does anyone have this board and can relate their experience or something?

For $90 hell yes.

$90? Are you sure this is not a scam?

It was posted in my local classifieds with pictures and stuff, and I'm going to be picking it up in person, so I'm not too worried.  Is it really good enough to warrant being cautious about a scam?

Either the seller has no idea what he/she has, its a scam, or you struck gold. It just seems a little too good to be true to me. But for $90 it might be worth the gamble.

Can you have them test it in front of you or something?

90 dollars is absurdly cheap.

I suppose I could ask about that.  I'm kinda excited about it, because it is insanely cheap.

 

So, from what I'm gathering, this is not a bad board at all?

It's a pretty good board. Nothing spectacular, but EVGA hasn't made a spectacular motherboard in a while at all...

Okay.  Well, I just texted him, so we'll see how this goes I guess...  Either way, I'll have a story to tell.

Haha, yup. Buying stuff super cheap always is fun.

 

I just bought a motherboard for 99 cents, interested to see how that ends up
