Because I'm going to mainly be using this for dos games, don't want too fast of a cpu. With the k6-2 I can just disable the L1/2 as needed.

Thanks :) I've spent some time on Ebay and did find a p5a 1.03, but they wanted $200 for it and $50 shipping. It's sad because the soyo ticks all the boxes, and i bought all the components around that setup then i get a dud. And the seller is now saying 'i thought i was sending it within the usa'... …

I've just had the time to put this pc together. However it simply doesn't work. I'm only connecting the basics to test …

Hi Akula85, Thank you so much for the reply! I've spent ages today trying to find the drivers or where I can get them. All I found were dead links and one eBay auction for a CD/manual for another Soyo board that apparently also have drivers for this one (http://i.ebayimg.com/00/s/MTIwMFgxNjAw/z/ …

Hi all, I've been reading this forum for quite some time, first time posting (and using an account lol). I'm putting together an AMD k6-2+ 533 setup and have the Soyo SY-5EMA+.
