    Are Intel Desktop Boards Actually Any Good?

    As title really. Intel make their own desktop boards for the P4 platform. They appear to cost a little bit more than other boards. Are they actually any good?

    Yes top notch for quality / stability etc. just don't expect to do much tweaking with it.

    From what i have heard, they are very good, however there is a new SiS chipset coming out which is meant to be fantastic and a lot cheaper. thing gigabyte have made a board with it packed with features pretty cheap- cant remember the name tho.

    Have a hunt around, im sure it wont be too hard to find.

    After owning SIS and VIA p4 chipsets id only buy intel ever again tbh. Intel mobos are as said - very stable and robust but you dont get a lot of features cause they're mainly used for OEMs im assuming.

    I dont like sig pics so i turn off sigs Which doesnt help when i dont know what ive written here! DOH!
