hey ppl i am looking into this price offer .

Elitegroup K7S5A moederbord (SiS 735, ATX, socket A, 100-266 MHz, 5 PCI slots, 1 4X AGP slot, 1 AMR slot, LAN-, en sound-onboard), AMD Athlon XP1700+ (1466 MHz, 128/256 KB, socket A), CoolerMaster cooler (socket A), 256 MB DIMM (PC133)

beside the ongoing debate about a lower or higher cpu speed i was wondering if anyone knew anything bout that sis chipset .

this is the cheapest i could find in holland so far taking in mind speed and value for money .
i was thinking of getting a 1 ghz duron and a cheap mobo .. till i noticed this special offer wich costed 80 bucks more .. therefor highly intrested ..
i read some reviews and the conclusion is the same for the price you really can't go wrong .. cept that SIS chipset i dunno shit about shit bout that one)
any replies wouldbe welcome or advise
 
From my experience

I am building my XP 1800 Series System. i ordered the parts and i am waiting for them to come in. I will go back over my order confirmation letters to get the specific parts. I am kind of absent-minded and i can't find it at this time. BTW how much are you paying for it?

My stats are:
XP 1800
Global Win CPU Coeler
Geforce 3
256 Mb DDRAM- 3 empty sockets :-) hehe (Im going to eventually upgrade to 512)
Sound Blaster Live Value ( The new version with the standard 5.1 included)
DVD (Pioneer)
CDRW (Forget See absent-minded reference)
Directron Hydraulic Case (Metallic Blue)
+ more i forget the rest
I am paying between 1200-1300 US Dollars Including Shipping/Handling

So tell me what you think and ask me any questions. I will update this when i find my information.

    Guys just a heads up I am going to be shutting the site down soon. I am just waiting on the NUON people to decide whether they want to transfer forum data and keep the discord. My email is [email protected] for anyone that wants to keep in touch and I have a facebook too. I will make an official post later. Love you guys and will miss everyone!

    :(
  • Stephen Stephen:
    Oh no - please don't lose the Nuon content
  • The Helper The Helper:
    Someone email AtariAge and see if they want me to transfer the forum data over to it
  • Ghan Ghan:
    Could probably keep NUON stuff around here if we wanted.
  • Ghan Ghan:
    Hmm what to do about the World Editor site though?
  • Stephen Stephen:
    I'd rather personally just own a backup of the Nuon data than see it go to AtariAge honestly. If it gets enshittified as per usual, or if some of the "regular" Jaguar folks get there, it's not gonna be fun
  • The Helper The Helper:
    There will be a github of the forum data so the NUON Forum Data I guess would be available there
  • The Helper The Helper:
    World Editor is technically Ryoko stuff not mine you guys can keep that I am not in that even
