Chipsets are probably a little simpler than motherboards overall
to decide on. There's only 6 major players that I know of.
Intel: most of their chipsets are reliable and solid performing.
820 is the biggest flop of theirs that comes to mind.
AMD: Very rare to find. They've let others take the m
I've been using an amd64 machine since mid-February. I love it.
I'll never buy another x86.
anyone else using amd64? impressions?

I just built my ASUS A8N and AMD64 3200+ (Venice Core) system today.
It's pretty damned speedy and the hardware is pretty good quality. The
A8N comes with cables and ports out the ass. 2 gig ethernet ports, at
least 8 usb2 ports, 2 firewire, optical/coax digital audio out,
buttloads of audio ports
Thanks to everyone for all the feedback, the overview, and the fine
details.
That was great. Horst

I have an Asus A7NX8-E motherboard and overall it works well in Linux.
I use the nVidia drivers for the network card but I switched to using
ALSA drivers instead for the onboard sound. I haven't been able to get

You had an unreliable mother? Err Anyway, in regards to

Considering the number of repairs and builds I do I can tell you
who has the lowest failure rate but rest assured I've seen bad

I've got an Asus K8V SE Deluxe.
works great with both Linux and OpenBSD.
I don't use it's SATA or ieee1394 interfaces, so I can't say much
The K8N is an Nvidia chipset system which their is linux
drivers for but I'm not sure how much of it is in the kernel.
The K8V will be Via of course and tends to play nicer with linux
as far as mainboard chipsets are concerned.
Asus overall is one of the more reliable boards you can buy. 3
