Hey guys, basically, I'm given the choice of picking a GA-6VTXE or an Abit ST6. Both support the Tualatin CPUs and the GA-6VTXE has an extra ISA slot which could potentially prove very useful! I could just plug in a Sound Blaster AWE32 or AWE64 and use it under DOS.
However, the GA-6VTXE is using a Via Apollo PRO 133T, where as the ST6 is using the i815EP B-Step.
I really hate Via with their 4in1 Service Packs, is it really all that bad in this board ?
I should also note the Abit board is a bit pricier, about 10 euro more. Which one should I go for? What's your opinion?
