I want to build some cheap integrated systems with XP1600+ processors and sdram.
Does anyone have any suggestions or opinions and why? I am looking at the PCChips M841LMR.
I have heard the onboard video is pretty good for an all in one board.
Also the sis740 chipset is basically the same as the sis735 but with the additiion of the onboard video.
I have been happy with several systems that I have built with ECS K7S5A with both DDR and sdram.
I want to save a few more bucks with the addition of the onboard video and modem which the K7S5A does not have.
Thanks in advance.
PCChips M841LMR

DETAILED FEATURES:
Main Chipset
SiS 740 chipset
Supports AMD AthlonXP/ Athlon / Duron processors
Supports AMD AthlonXP processors up to 2000+ @ 266 FSB
Memory
2 DDR DIMM Sockets and 2 DIMM sockets support (CAN NOT be used at the same time)
Two 184-pin 2.5V DDR* (Double Date Rate) SDRAM (DDR266/DDR200) or
Two 168-pin 3.3V SDRAM (PC133/PC100)
Maximum installed memory is 2GB
* DDR SDRAM provides 800MBps or 1 GBps data transfer depending on whether the bus is 100MHz or 133MHz. It doubles the rate to 1.6 GBps and 2.1 GBps by transferring data on both the rising and falling edges of the clock. DDR SDRAM uses additional power and ground lines and requires 184-pin 2.5V unbuffered DIMM module rather than the 168-pin 3.3V unbuffered DIMMs used by SDRAM.
