Anyone ever heard of or used a BCM BC133KT motherboard? I'm looking at one for $47.00 on pricewatch. Who makes them?

thanks!
 
same as PC chips, but you are looking at a VIA KT133 chipset... only support 200FSB and out dated.
for around $10 more, you can get a sis735 chipset. support both SD Ram and DDR ram

What? Are you sure about this? BCM is an American company. I didn't think they had anything to do with PCCHIPS, which is Taiwanese, if I'm not mistaken. Last I knew, PCCHIPS and ECS were the same company, but I didn't know this extended to BCM!

This is from their website:

"BCM Advanced Research was founded in 1990 and merged with GVC International (Taiwan) in 1994, to complement their one billion dollars organizational focus on supporting the OEM computer-related market. This alliance formed a strong and successful partnership, along with a worldwide reputation for the quality of design, development and manufacturing expertise of PC motherboards. In February 2000, BCM separated from GVC, in order to focus more on the vertical market applications of its products."

There is no mention of any alliance with PCCHIPS, only a temporary one with GVC.
