      It is obviously RoHS and all the ports are listed.

      Since it will never need worked on RoHS doesn't matter anyway unless you have a habit of licking PCBs.

      They do.
      They are called workstation boards.
      They usually retail in the $300-$400 range.
      I have a few if you got lots of cash.
      Or you could turn off the sound chip in the BIOS like everyone else that doesn't want the on-board does.

          No, I don't like ROHS compliance because they use lead-free solder. In any case, I don't think it will be a problem because the northbridges probably don't run hot enough for it to fracture.
          "We have offered them (the Arabs) a sensible way for so many years. But no, they wanted to fight. Fine! We gave them technology, the latest, the kind even Vietnam didn't have. They had double superiority in tanks and aircraft, triple in artillery, and in air defense and anti-tank weapons they had absolute supremacy. And what? Once again they were beaten. Once again they scrammed [sic]. Once again they screamed for us to come save them. Sadat woke me up in the middle of the night twice over the phone, 'Save me!' He demanded to send Soviet troops, and immediately! No! We are not going to fight for them."
