Our members and frequent guests know how extremely proud we at AOA are of our affiliation with EPoX Motherboards in general and EPoX UK in particular. Like AOA EPoX itself has started from scratch and through dedication to quality and customer service come to be respected as THE overclocker's motherboard of choice.

EPoX UK has long linked to AOA Forums from their EPoX Motherboard site and list AOA as the place to go to receive help and meet folks who share their love of EPoX mother boards.

AOA in turn has hosted the first motherboard topic which actually brings it's users into first hand contact with EPoX techs and Engineers.

Both EPoX and AOA are the first to dare to do so!! To the best of my knowledge, EPoX remains the only Motherboard maker who dares to meet it's customers in this manner!

EPoX UK has chosen AOA forums to release and field test it's high performance BIOSes before release to the world at large. The world comes to AOA to receive these BIOSes which have rightly gained a reputation as world beaters in high performance!

Today I am very please to announce a deepening of our bonds as EPoX has decide to advertise on AOA. It is AOA's phenomenal growth which has made this possible.

Which is to say, it is YOUR patronage and loyal support that has made this possible. For which AOA Staff, Admins and myself cannot thank you enough!!

But we ARE going to try!

In the coming weeks you may look forward to an all new and improved front page upon which we will endeavor to expand our areas of interest to things not currently covered by AOA...
don't want to spoil the surprise":O}

And YES this new relationship with EPoX Will pay the bills and ensure our continued presence on the web! It has been an amazing 15 months on the web for us all!! AOA has surpassed forums that have been in existences for many years and looks forward to challenging the best of the best in the coming months.

I thank you EPoX thanks you!

Danial you sound like a new dad proudly showing off his first son, and rightly so. I've said it before and I'm sure i'll say it again and again "I spend a lot of time searching forums for advice and Knowledge but I always seem to start here". It doesn't matter if I looking for advice, info or just a good laugh I can always find it here. Keep up the good work and show off this new "child" today is your day to shine.         &n bsp;       &nbs p;                 &n bsp;       &nbs p;       S.W.

The truth is I'm doing something I well and truly love, now that it's no longer driving me to the poor house I can wait on things like food and paying my other bills! LOL

You guys are the best, I'm just glad we can come here and hang together!!

Now that EPoX has shown us this consideration, I'm fairly confident that others will understand the value of advertising with us.
