Re: MicroATX Motherboard with 1.5-2GB Ram?
Hi Nick, Unfortunately the Tyan boards in MicroATX don't seem to be available with current chipsets. Not sure why... :-/ This is a disappointment... i'm sure there must be SOME demand for 1.5G Ram in these. I know that many chipsets do support 1.5G and 2G, but the motherboard manufacturers only put on 2 slots, so you have 512M * 2 only. Anyone find anything?
