There are a few brands like Zebronics and Necola that are offering low cost 845/945 motherboards. You can get Necola/Zeb with 1 year warranty for 1.3k

But I think zebro is reliable... coz it has a company name on it. In case of warranty on chinese boards, it totallly depends on the vendor IMO..

:shock:chinese 845 m/b with 2x sata cost around 1300 with 1 yr warranty and chinese 945 m/b with 2x sata and supports ddr2 ram cost around 1650/- with 1 yr warranty.:oops:

:arrow: I think your dealer is robbing you. The correct price of 945 chinese board is Rs. 1500 my dealer is ready to give me on this price.
and you can help me another way:arrow: can you tell me the prices of ddr2 ram there??:smile:
