Sorry, didn´t see any reviews out there, but my experience with PC-chips boards is simply terrible - awful performance (but that´s caused by chipsets, something with SiS730 simply can´t shine), often unreliable and - that´s worst point - absolutely no support from manufacturer. Better look for another board, like Asus A7S-VM

Found one!, but it isn't pretty. I know nothing of these boards but I would say that Bobek was accurate in his description.

My own review. I have this board. It sucks(PERIOD). It have onboard everything and I did not use any onboard stuff because they all sucks, but I bought it a long time ago for cheap so ehhhh.. Why don't u spend the money on K7s5a? It's cheap and a great performance board. I've been thinking of selling the 810LM for the K7s5a heh...

pc-chips boards are generally stable but the performance sucks

If all your gonna do is Office/Internet/occasional games its fine.

If your interested in alot of games, overclocking, tweaking its no good.

The video and sound are integrated and crappy. Tech support is non-existent

Two things to keep in mind:

(a) PC-Chips is all about serving large OEMs. No end user support beyond BIOS updates and drivers.

(b) All-in-one boards offer an incredible value - for their targeted market. If you're trying to go cheap on a machine that will be used for things requiring serious 3D graphics performance, you'll be disappointed. For a home box used to get stuff done rather than waste time with, it's fine.

M810LMR in particular is all over the place, pick almost any retailer's home brand entry level Duron box, and you'll get this mainboard inside. At least that's the situation here in Germany.
