I would have to recommend using a mainboard with an Intel chipset and at the very least an SiS chipset. Via, is largly problematic and prone to bus problems. Working for a PC repair shop i can personally attest to seeing many many more Via based mainboards going bad then either SiS or Intel, true there are a hell of a lot more Via mainboards out there, so it makes sense that there would be more coming back. But the issues with Via are more pronounced. But one thing is for sure, steer clear of PC Chips Mainboards, they are cheaper but they will make you pay for the savings in price.
In short, how much of a glutten are you for punishment? :) Do your own research, you will come to the same conclusion. This is all largely my opinion developed over time, so take it as such, but i would think it is statistically accurate. :) On Wed, 2003-02-26 at 07:04, Alan Wilter Sousa da Silva wrote: > > I intend to use my Voodoo 3 3000, perfect with Xfree 4.2. > > I find a site about m810 at: http://radel.inet.net.nz/m810lmr.html > So I'm declining from m810. > > Asus and Via let me freak a time ago.
