<br>VIA chipsets.<br><br>I used to like VIA, but my preference has changed since I started<br>building my myth box.<br><br>Just a friendly advice.<br><br>Regards,<br><br>Sergio<br><br><br><br>Luke Olson wrote:<br><br>> Hey sorry about the crappy formating beofre i hope this one is better
<br>><br>> Hey all, just found this list and i am loving it.<br>> I will be building a Front end box for a friend that knows a moderate<br>> amount about computers, so i want to build a box set it up, and never have
