I haven't read this, although I'm sure others have, and will tell me off for posting.

I think it's rather pathetic that SE doesn't even include sound connectors...

@Electro

To be fair, I belive Hyperion did say that they wouldn't have drivers for the on board sound of the A1's anyway. So unless that has changed, I don't see it as a problem. Plus you get better quality sound out of a creative Labs S/C then an on-board one (generally ;-))

However the
G3-SE boards will be shipped with (small, quiet) cpu fans and modified ATX
I/O backplates within the published price (ie ukp360/euro580/usd580 ex-VAT)
which I hope helps.

Well, that's the first time I've heard the answer to the non-standard backplate layout.  Good to see it will be included.

For that kind of price... Eh.. Anyway drivers for VIA ac97 shouldn't be a problem since amithlon uses them and theres also linux version. Sure SB sounds better but half of the time  that dont matter since u use it for games and mp3s on cheap ass speakers and headphones.. I bet half of a.org people wouldnt hear a difference.
