Just tested them, both working perfectly!
Installed an Atlhon XP 2500+ Barton core in the Biostar M7VKQ (it shows unknown CPU in bios / cpu string, but works fine). My only issue with it, is that i can´t disable the onboard video.
In the Asus P5S-B i´ve installed a 500MHZ regular K6-2, working just fine also. Unfortunately it didn´t come with any brackets. The VGA and USB+PS/2 brackets i could salvage from another PcChips motherboard, worked fine!
But the AUDIO unfortunately seems a bit different.
In the manual the ASUS Audio bracket have a small PCB with some components, the bracket from the PcChips does not have any components whatsoever, and the pinout is slight different apparently.
Thats a bummer because i really wanted to test it, because the chipset is an ESS Solo-1 apparently (which is pretty good for dos afaik).
