I guess having many available chipsets and motherboard manufacturers makes it better for the consumer, since it causes competition, which in turn lowers prices, and makes the companies put out products with innovative features, to get the manufacturer business. The pcchips board is very interesting in that it has both pci-express x16 and agp pro slots. It also manages to fit both on a micro atx sized board. The bad about the board is that it's socket 754, and that it only has 2 memory dimm slots.http://www.pcchips.com.tw/PCCWeb/Products/ProductsDeta l.aspx?MenuID=16&LanID=2&DetailID=367&DetailName=Specifica ion[Edited by vnf4ultra on 2005-12-16 16:21:28] |

It'll take quite a bit of work before I'd ever consider using one of their products, and I seriously don't see that happening. |

I can work with a socket 754, but 2 memory slots!! I'll have to see some credible reviews before I even consider buying this. Besides, I have no money anyways

This solution seems a bit short changed. 2 memory slot can barely be cosidered logical in this a age of computing |

PCCHIPS products just don't worth the money. The company uses low-cost components, foolish engineering (2 DIMM's ? socket 754? Hah? Socket 939 is going to be replaced by Socket AM2 very soon, and they are using Socket 754 ? Whatever.) and a final price that cannot compete with products from Gigabyte for example (that is far better).I would definitely pay a little more money to get a board from Gigabyte or even ASROCK. PCCHIPS will be one of my latest choices. |
