I've used a few different VIA boards. The tyan S1854 Trinity 400, Asus P3V4X, and Abit VT6X4. The Tyan board was bar far the most stable (I build 3 systems for other people on this board). It does not overclock as well as the others, but at 'normal' clock speeds, it beats the Asus & abit boards hands down. It also has both slot 1 and socket 370.
