Foxconn NF4SLI7AA - 8EKRS2
Motherboard Review
The install:
I installed the NF4SLI7AA into my
NZXT Lexa case. On the motherboard I installed a Gig kit of Crucial
Ballistix Tracer RAM, two Nvidia 7800 GT video cards from BFG and EVGA
and a Pentium D 940 processor. The install also included two Western
Digital Raptor 74 drives, a Lite-on DVD burner, and a NZXT 500 Watt PSU
provided power.

The NF4SLI7AA - AEKRS2 comes with
this handy installation poster. I can't stress enough how helpful this
is. Even a seasoned DIY guy like myself can easily spot key connectors
and jumper settings.

The back even walks you through
some basic BIOS setup and the included software installation. Who needs
a stinking manual now??

Here we see the bare motherboard
installed. The red really stands out in contrast to the black cabling
and steel construction.

After installing the components
things look a bit more cluttered. all that's left to do is find a stray
12 V to plug into that center plug.

Here is a picture of the completed
system all lit up. I still need to find a 12 V run.. Maybe I can buy a
nice extension?

Not too bad. Just need to add some
aftermarket cooling and clean up the cable runs a bit!
