Hi. I'm about to order a system. Does anyone have any comments/issues
with the following hardware?
ASUS 75/90/100/120 Triton MB
o 3 PCI, 3 ISA, 1 ASUS
o 256k/512k normal/burst pipe cache
o "Award" BIOS w/ NCR SCSI BIOS in 1Mbit flash EPROM
15" ViewSonic monitor (0.28 dp, digital, flat screen, 1280x1024)
Mach64 GUP Turbo 64-bit PCI 4mb VRAM
NCR PCI SCSI Controller
The main things that I am worried about is the quality of the monitor, and
the NCR SCSI. Does anyone know, is that a good SCSI controller, and might
I be better off with a Buslogic, etc?
I'm also looking for good PCI ethernet hardware. Any winners out there?
Thanks!
Mark
