right.

a chipset without EEC support, without ability to cache above 64 megs ram...

need i say more?

ok, so it does have sgram support, so what? see if i care.

this is one of those times when i'm more than just dissapointed into intel's
developers... makes me wonder how can they not include something they
already have invented into it.

what the people wouldve needed would've been chipset with support for
over 512 megs cacheable ram, ofcourse using sgram. (and ofcourse with
like 1024/2048k cache option) or atleast a product that's not WORSE
then their earlier products.

seriously people, HX boards are the ones to get.
