Do a seach on www.ebay.co.uk, they seem to be far more common in the UK then the USA.

Use the search words "MSI" & "6168" and see what comes up.

I had to purchase mine through a friendly 3rd party in England because the tool (a business) selling this one refused to ship overseas.

Hmmm...actually, it doesn't make too much difference -as many of the U.K. auctions are also listed on eBay.com as well... ::)

...in retrospect, there hasn't been as much as a whisper of ANY of these Mainboards on eBay for AGES! :'(

Incorrect!

If the seller states shipping to just the UK then it won't be listed on Ebay USA.

I have seen two in less then 2 months on ebay.co.uk

Yah, you're right Paitence! :o ::)

Sorry I forgot about that! :-[

Guess I'll have to keep an eye out then... ;)

Hmm...I'm surprised you didn't know about the MSI618 Jankskjaer! There are a FEW boards with 'on-baord' Voodoo, not just from MSI (although this is the most common...) :D

I was thinking about some of the other boards with V3 but since I have at least one example I won't go out of my way to find one of the others.

Unless it should happen to drop in my lap of course ;-)

This one was a pain enough to lay hands on.
