I am recieiving from a good friend two 1.26GHz Intel Tualatins:D and I have looked for dual-CPU motherboards that support it (sub-$150). The only one I have come across is the Tyan Tiger 230T. Has anyone seen any reviews of this or has this motherboard? If there are others please inform me about them. Is this Tyan a good motherboard or what? Please help.

There's only one other board I can think of. Iwill's DVD266u-RN. It's a amazing board, and I'd say get it, but it costs at minimum $174:(. It's a DDR board btw, If you need to say sub-$150, then I wouldn't hesitate to go for the Tyan. They make solid boards, especially in Dualies. So it's your choice. If you want a review of DVD266u-RN I can dig up a link.

Ya, the Tyan is about 100 bucks thanks for the info. Could you please get me a link to a review of the Iwill board? Thanks.

Jeez that IWill board is nice. But it is a lil expensive and I would need to buy ddr ram. And I am sure you know how expensive ram is these days. I already have 1 gig of PC133 ram that I can use with the Tyan. I just gotta figure out if the 5.1 sound, raid, and ddr is worth it to me to spend the extra 75 bucks (just for the motherboard). I guess I can buy the IWill and wait for ram prices to go down cuz by then I can save some more money to get ddr ram. I am a poor college student. Thanks for the link.
