dertbv Posted January 31, 2008 Share Posted January 31, 2008 can anyone give me thoughts on this mother board? Do you think it would be ok? http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813136032 Thanks Link to comment
RobJ Posted January 31, 2008 Share Posted January 31, 2008 At first glance, it looks great, with 8 SATA ports, LGA 775, Quad-core support, DDR2 800, for $80. Then you start reading the reviews/complaints, and notice the lack of successful Linux users, and the various chipsets not mentioned before in these forums... I would wait until someone else has confirmed full unRAID support for this board. Chipsets needing confirmation are: the North Bridge - ATI CrossFire Xpress 3200 IE, the South Bridge - ATI SB600, and the extra SATA controller - Promise PDC40719. The dual LAN chips are probably OK, from Marvell. Link to comment
