No, not really. The problem has already been fixed - again, it's caused by a bug in the Orion chipset (specifically, in the A1 stepping). I'm told it's been fixed for awhile, but ASUS tells me that they haven't gotten any of the fixed chips yet. >Seems to me that if they intended to do this, they would have socketed >the part -- is it socketed? I don't think they come in a socketable package (they're in the standard FP), and besides, I don't think ASUS realized that it was going to be a problem for anyone. ...and really, for many people, it probably won't be. -DG
