Any experience? > Still if are > sure you want to buy ASUS, then go for the ones with NVIDIA > chipsets.The ASUS mobos with SiS chipsets suck! Any particular reason? I thought that AMD cpu boards used AMD chipsets which are very well supported. U can run linuxbios on em - which is the bottomline for linux support (u require extremely detailed documentation from the vendor to write a bios). could u please list the chipset numbers if it's not too much trouble. rgds jtd > > Regards, > Shreyas Phadnis. rgds jtd -- http://mm.ilug-bom.org.in/mailman/listinfo/linuxers
