AMD CPU + AMD Chipset = stability as well.
ARE YOU LISTENING, AMD?
I'm all for AMD, but while this current VIA board is a dream, I'd love them to make competitive chipsets. I'd be willing to bet things like lowering the clock in cases of overheat, auto-shutdown on overheat, etc. would become standard *overnight* if they made a chipset who's reference board used them.
Can't beat the SiS chipsets, of all things, for the Athlons (it wasn't that long ago that we'd consider such a comment blasphemy ). They have gotten 3rd parties to make good chipsets, but the road was too long (it wasn't until the KT266a and SiS735).
<-- wants a L7S7A2 as soon as they hit the states.
