...and other replacement mobo parts (I/O shields, northbridge fans, etc.) can be ordered directly from Abit's online parts store.

I recently bought a replacement I/O shield for a customer, and Abit's turnaround was pretty fast. Today, while looking for a replacement northbridge fan (also $6, cheaper than a universal fan!) I noticed they just started carrying replacement BIOS chips in June 2007.

Before you toss that mobo that you made a doorstop out of by messing up a BIOS flash, or that sounds like it's ready for takeoff, check it out.

BTW - They also carry vidcard cooling fans as well, for selected nVidia and ATI products!
