Im looking around for a board and ive found one supporting DDR400 and AGP 8x, but is using SIS648 chipset.

What i want to know basically is it any good compared to an Intel CS??

Would i be better off buying a less spec motherboard then ive seen with Intel stamped on it.

Cheers

if you can afford it, go for 32-bit RAMBUS memory

Si,

There's supposed to be a new Intel chipset out in April time (ish). When I get back to work I'll check for you.

Rambus is good BUT i want the DDR400 sticks to use with the Dual DDR canderwood chipset mate. ive got rambus now, and yes its good but its not the ram standard.

I am with Chris, but I am well known for making my feelings on SIS clear on here. They have come a long way over the last year/2, but I still won't be using there stuff yet.
