MSI 6378

[littletemple]

I was wondering if you guys happen to own or had experience with this motherboard? If so, please respond with bad or good comments. I was looking to buy a cheap barebone form PC Experts for 143+shipping for a 1.33 266mhz fsb athlon and it comes with the MSI 6378 Via KLE 133 board. Have any of you guys bought from PC Experts and are they any good? Thanks.

bump - also curious about this motherboard, due to the fact that is has sound, video and lan and supports up to XP1900+ (not that anyone forking out the dough for that CPU would be interested in this board )

Yeah, I'm wodering the same as you guys. Anybody know anything about this board? How about the Via KLE chipset? Any good? I got a friend looking to upgrade his Gateway system as cheaply as possible. Unfortunately the case is a micro ATX form factor, so our options are pretty limited. This board looks like a good solution.

RE: AMCRambler

Well, my shuttle SV24 setup has the same chipset (I think, VIA 133A + savage 4 video). It's not a gamer (I guess I haven't tried, that's just what all the review said) But I do know it works well for internet/e-mail as well as DVD playback, tv-tuner watching, ect.

At ~$61, it's hard to go wrong
