    killer budget chipset

    The price of reliability is the pursuit of the utmost simplicity. It is a price which the very rich find most hard to pay.

    Nice boards. Little dissapointed hot hardware didn't use Vista though, as that is what the majority will be running on. Strange as it should run perfectly on Vista.

    absolutely and I am still trying to find a place that is going to have the Albatron KI690-AM2, because that from what I hear is going to be the lowest power AM2 board EVER

    Hmmm, Can't wait till more places get their hands on these, i've seen 1 report of the abit IT-90 HD hitting 350fsb pretty easily ( for mATX ) i hope we get higer fsb outta them i would love to see a 400fsb stable mATX board, specially for the price.

    I hope there will be boards with this chipset from Asrock. Their bios rocks! (all their uATX boards have undervolting and great fanctrl i bios). I prefer Asrock to Asus when it comes to uATX.

    Would be cool to run a 65nm X2 3600+ with 0,8V @ nice clock. Silent and green...


    Abit's new uATX are great also but they are pricey and don't undervolt in bios.
