When you buy <A HREF="http://www.zipzoomfly.com/jsp/ProductDetail.jsp?ProductCode=241440" target="_new">This Board</A> and cash in the rebate. The board is FREE, it's a top quality board (read review <A HREF="http://www.sysopt.com/reviews/SOYO_P4I875P/index.html" target="_new">HERE</A>), and that means no matter what AMD processor you were considering, the comparable Intel system will come out cheaper!

Yes, I almost forgot about INTEL'S CLEAR PERFORMANCE LEAD!!!

What performance lead? For the price of an A64 2800+ and MSI K8 Neo Platinum, you can buy the P4 3.2C and have money left over!

It has nothing to do with Intel, it's SOyo offering the rebates, and they've done it on a bunch of their boards lately, not just the Intel chipset ones. Seen it with i865, i875 and ATI chipsets.

Crash...from what IU can see from some of your last post, you are becoming a soyo dealer !!! ;-) How long before you start to like VIA??? :))

-Always put the blame on you first, then on the hardware !!!

My friend bought that board a while ago just because he needed another machine really quick. He had low expectations for it but it turned out to be fairly good. If you wan't to put a crap load of hard drives in your machine that would be the board for you. It has excessive onboard hd controllers.

I was joking around with Crashman, he usually refers to CERTAIN reviews as AWESOME REIVEWS. I took for granted that the link was to the SYS OPT review for this board. I guess I should have clicked the link first. Just another ROOKIE mistake! It won't be the last one I make!

You know, I haven't gotten a good flame in ages.

Then again, I haven't posted much in ages either...

For that matter, I may have gotten flamed and just not read it.

:\

I'm so broke that I can't even pay attention.

Umm ...

<font color=red>No way! Transmeta can't even spell their own name right, let alone design a CPU as superior as VIA.</font color=red> :mad:

Hey, I get VIA boards free too, and sell them. Shhh. Dude, a board could be made of french manure...or is it "man-wah", and I'd still sell it. I need the money.

I linked to a review, I liked the board. Beat my P4C800-E Deluxe in a few ways.
