I need a replacement motherboard for tired (capacitors) Soltek
SL-865PE-L. As a replacement I'm thinking of Asus P4P800 which are
commonly available and which uses the same memory etc. so the upgrade
would be limited to motherboard only.
However there are many versions of this board and I'm especially
wondering about the integrated lan chips. Marvell or 3Com gigabyte lan and
when the board was new there were some issues with them. Googling the
discussion groups don't seem to bring out any new theads about them. So either nobody is using them anymore or they just work. Anyone here using Asus P4P800 series motherboards? What version? How are integrated lan and audio working? Would you recommend that
board?
