I ordered this mobo from tiger, thinking of refusing deliver when it
arrives in a couple of days-- did I choose a bad mobo? Some of the reviews
of it repeatedly say it has problems with the chipset fan, etc. One reason
I went with it was because it is certified 100% for Mandriva Linux (which
I use). But should I choose another mobo and just deal with onboard LAN
or soundcard not recognized by linux and go with PCI soundcard and PCI LAN
card until linux distro/kernel recognizes onboard mobo LAN/audio?
What would be a good mobo without problems to get? I want to build a new
system that will utilize an AMD athlon 64 X2 dual core cpu, the newer
GeForce 7200(?) pci express video card (256 video RAM), 2-4GB system RAM.
Building a fast graphics system to do digital art (20x30 inch collages,
5-10 layers @300dpi), ability to do fast renderings, etc.
Any help appreciated, thank you!
