Which computer to keep, one with an Asus CUBX board (BX chipet) or Tyan 1854 (apollo pro chipet)
I know what I think, I am just curious to see what people say

The BX will be easier to sell and get more $$$, the Apollo board is more flexible for wider coverage of speed range due to ACPI throttling opportunities.

Unicorn herding operations are proceeding, but all the totes of hens teeth and barrels of rocking horse poop give them plenty of hiding spots.

Resurrecting and older thread here but....
Just looking at ebay prices, Asus CUBX vs. Tyan1854.... the prices tell you which one is considered to be more valuable (the Asus)
