    any new Pentium m boards before christmas?

    won a 740 on ebay last week.

    now looking for a decent matx, pcie, pentium m board to come out.

    i know aopen has one but its price is stupid.

    i also know there are a few others but they are agp based.

    any news on P M mobos

    VIA have a new chipset that supports the Pentium M. There should be mobos out before Chrimbo. Wait for the reviews.

    Yeah a CT-479 + board is currently the best solution, if you want a relatively new chipset and decent overclocking options. Dedicated 479 boards like the Aopens are overpriced and underspecced.

    Read these for info:

    Ocforums

    The P4GD1 supports PCI express, not sure if it's micro ATX though.
