I bet it will be back by monday.

Newegg usually just shows a product as out of stock rather than remove it completely..

I notice that www.overclockers.co.uk only sell the 8RGA+ now & have discontinued the 8RDA+ & 8RDA3+. Is this because they can't get it or because they are sick of all the returns?

BTW where are the Epox people these days? I remember when they had quite a big presence on this forum.

lol the EP-8RDA+ is still the best epox socket A mobo on the marked, maybe even best of all currently available, no denying that...
I cannot understand that move in the slightest.
8RGA+/8RDA3+/8RDA3G are no match/replacement for it IMO.
Besides, MCP-T is important for any NF2 based mobo - well, the MCP is cheaper of course.
I'm afraid that this is the very reason for discontinuing their best Mobo to date.

So Epox went through the hassles of releasing a 2.0 and 2.1 8RDA+ not too long ago and they are now discontinuing it! - beats me for sure - I wanted to buy a few this month as I have 3 PCs to build for friends and they wanted the 8RDA+...Plan B I guess

Due to very popular demand, the EP-8RDA+ will soon be back...........

Oh,,,I guess this says it all..
