I did a search for tualitan and the forum didn't return any hits. I would have thought that somebody would have already asked this question several times over.

What is the most stable (best) PIII Tualitan capable motherboard out there. My ST6 was fine but I liked my CUSL2-C better. Is the TUSL2-C a good board? Any other recommendations for a PIII 1.2GHz?

You know there is a P3 1.4 GHZ out now. JUst check around the web, I know ive seen a few around. The TUSL2 c is a good board, if you want to go with Asus. But other makers already have them too. Epox has ar least 4 boards that support the new P3. Good Luck

Searching for "tualitan" won't get you anything. Try searching for "Tualatin."

I've only had personal experience with two Tualatin capable boards, both using the VIA 694T chipset. The first one I got was the MSI 694Pro. It worked fine if the CPU was left at default, but wouldn't POST if I tried even the slightest overclock. I hated that board. Then, I got an Abit VH6T. I've run a Celeron 1.0A at 1.33GHz and currently a Celeron 1.1A at 1.46GHz. Works great and is stable. Light on the features (basic AC'97, no NIC, no RAID, no USB 2.0, etc.) but pretty cheap. One of these and a Tualatin Celeron makes for a great budget system.
