I could be wrong: manufacturers sometimes change chips in the middle of
production, but none of the 530TX's I've seen have been VIA chips. Some
use Realtek chips (the 530TX+) and some use Digital Tulip chips (211x0,
usually 21140). Both of these use different modules, and they're both
different from the via-rhine. I've never seen a standalone NIC use the
via-rhine: only VIA chipsets with onboard NIC's. That doesn't mean they
don't exist, but they're most likely pretty uncommon.
Can you examine the big chip in the middle and see what it says? That's
the best way to identify a NIC. A simple google search for something like
"ethernet <number from chip>" will pull up loads of info.
