I think I have a Socket 775 Mobo or two, but nobody would want them. IBM ThinkCentre leftovers. :)

Absolutely no flexibility and custom head-ends for most connections...

EDIT: And a BIOS that doesn't support Quads. :)

I used to want that board so badly. It allowed DDR3 on a socket 775 while everywhere else you looked was DDR2 only, and it even supported speeds of 2200MHz. Even back then it had dual BIOS as well. PCIe 2.0 as well, while many other boards of the time were still v1.1

This one is the one i drooled over the most though: http://www.gigabyte.com/products/product-page.aspx?pid=2861#ov All that shiney copper was hypnotizing. And is that built-in liquid cooling ports over the NB? Why, yes. Yes it is :p
...That link doesn't show you all of the shiney copper you get though. I guess it was removed so you could actually see the board. This one shows it though: http://content.hwigroup.net/images/products/xl/042807/2/gigabyte_gaep45textreme.jpg

Edit: Damn it now i want one again! :(

Did you get a motherboard you were looking for? I have around 5 setting here that I am now looking to sell/get rid of all with CPUs and heat sinks, some with memory as well. I have enough parts that with cases and a DVD-RWs they would all be complete systems (except operating system).
