Nik, I can suggest a lot of them. Actually, it's the motherboard that concerns you. Most motherboards seem to be based upon schematics provided by the chipset supplier. Thus, if you get motherboards based on VSLI, C&T, Symphony, Intel, etc., you should have a fair cross section of clones. I usually see common problems with a given chipset/bios. With faster CPUs, the actual board layout becomes a problem, so you can expect to see more problems due to a spicific layout. I'd ask Evan Yares about his observations. He sees more motherboards than I do… Ken ///
