If you are a customer of logicsupply maybe you can get them to test one of those boards, after they receive them, with a CentOS Live CD, to see if everything works properly. <snip. Going back to the first days of January, when I thought the mainboard in my Desktop box needed to be repaired or replaced, first I looked at an MSI board in the store where the motherboard repairman is. Then, at a Biostar. I went to the web sites of both manufacturers. From Biostar, I was able to download their manuals, etc., which I like a lot. No experience with either company and not with that technology. Dell put a FoxConn mainboard in this Dell Dimension and I noticed that one of our other Dell Dimensions has a FoxConn PSU. Many people here on this list can give you much better data, but do check out the web sites of the mainboard OEMs you are interested in. Hopefully, some people here will recommend HW for you.
