K8N Neo-FSR ~= K8N Neo Platinum

My have to replace my motherboard - a K8N Neo Platinum. Have seen the
K8N Neo-FSR, from its spec I assume it is the same, apart from only 2
rather than 3 Ram slots?

Thanks

 

There's very little difference between the two boards. Both have 3
DIMM slots (single channel). I think the FSR was the budget version
and the Platinum was the enthusiast version. Both are Socket 754.

Thanks for the reply, but don't have to replace it now - it's back to life.

 

Be careful wih the FSR v2.0 which is not the same board at all and is often
sold as a FSR. One runs a NForce 3 250, the other a NForce3 250Gb (including
a chipset integrated Nvidia hardware Gbit ethernet controller). Also, the
FSR has 3 DIMMs slots, although the FSR v2.0 has only 2... Subtle
differences that explains prices betwwen those apparently similar boards...

best regards
