Just about a week after the announcement of the first “golden mainboards” ever (see this news-story), Soltek Computer launches another couple of models with the same feature for those khalifs, who have computer cases made of gold and the Socket A processors with silver heatsinks installed in.

Frankly speaking, I find nothing interesting in this product, except the yellow colour of the PCB, have a look at the list of specs:

• Supports all Socket A Athlon XP/Athlon/Duron CPUs with 200, 266 or 333MHz FSB;
• NVIDIA nForce2 SPP chipset with NVIDIA MCP-family I/O controller;
• 3 DIMM slots for up to 3GB of PC2100 and PC2700 or DDR400 memory. Dual-channel memory bus support: the memory modules should be identical and installed in pairs;
• 5 PCI and 1 AGP 8x slot;
• 2-channel integrated ATA-33/66/100/133 controller;
• Serial ATA-150 controller from Promise, providing 2 Serial ATA-150 ports and 1 Parallel ATA-33/66/100/133 port (SL-75FRN-R only);
• 6 USB ports;
• Integrated AC'97 6-channel audio solution with SPDIF support;
• Overclocking functions, including FSB Setting, Vcore Setting, AGP Voltage, DIMM Voltage, and Multiplier Setting and so on;
• Software bundle and Soltek’s proprietary features are also present;
• ATX form-factor.

I wonder, how many of such mainboards will be sold worldwide? The previous “Golden Flame” series was available in limited quantity only, so, this nForce2 powered family also should not be a mainstream solution.

By the way, I have not a clue in regards the price of the product.
