I Xposted on suse-linux-e, and consensus seemed to place Tyan somewhere near the top, and Asus rock bottom. That's a shame about Asus since they are nice boards to work with :( Anyone else got a view on this?
I'm particularly interested people's experience here, since it's an AMD64 machine that I'm trying to build.
I've recently bought an ABIT KN8 motherboard based on the NVidia chipset. Everything works fine except for the Gigabit Ethernet which works when it feels like it. As a work around I've just put in a PCI 10/100 card and that is fine. My Nvidia PCIe video card works well and so does the on-board Nvidia sound chip. I would probably give Abit 8 out of 10, my previous Abit board (Socket 754) is still working a treat. In 18 months Ive never had a crash
