Hi all; SKU count for DDR MBs on PriceWatch shows ALi taking lead from AMD, with VIA starting to show up, and Intel support beginning to catch up to AMD support: Mother Board chip board Name set CPU Qty ------- ------ --- ----- --- Shuttle AV32 VIA Intel 2 MSI MS6366 VIA Intel 11 Epox EP-3VHA VIA Intel 3 Aopen AX37 VIA Intel 6 DFI CD70-SC VIA Intel 3 Gigabyte GA6RX VIA Intel 7 AsusTek A7A266 ALi Intel 30 -- CPU Total Intel: 62 Aopen MK7A AMD AMD 1 FIC AD11 AMD AMD 14 BioStar M7MIA AMD AMD 4 Gigabyte GA7DXC AMD AMD 30 AsusTek A7M266 AMD AMD 20 Transcend TS-ALR4 ALi AMD 3 Soyo Tek K7ADA ALi AMD 2 IWill KA266 ALi AMD 38 Shuttle AK12 VIA AMD 1 MSI K7T VIA AMD 2 -- CPU Total AMD: 115 Total ALi: 73 Total AMD: 69 Total VIA: 35 pricewatch.com Since AMD doesn't intend on staying in the chipset business, except to support their own processors while other chipset makers catch up, we can expect to see VIA overtake AMD's SKU count as well. The roll out continues. -- Carl P.S. The cheapest P4 motherboard on PriceWatch is now $177. By comparison, there are 128 DDR motherboards on PriceWatch at cheaper prices than that. 256MB of PC800 costs $291 or more on PriceWatch, while PC2100 DDR goes as low as $179, and PC1600 is as cheap as $122.
