The VM board has only 3 PCI slots. IT's a micro-ATX board. I'm pretty sure it also lacks the onboard sound, but I'm not sure. If you were building a system with only 3 Creamware boards & nothing else, it might work out for you, providing you've found a VM board with Ethernet, on-board audio, and video. Although I think it might have an AGP port. ...can't remember.

Hope that helps,
Sam

I mean: my problem is with the chip the VM has the 220d instead the C has the 415.
I'd like to know if it's true that the 220d doesn't work well with CW cards and why...

thanx

Now I really haven't got an idea what I'm talking about here, but as I remember, the 220 chip hasn't got the "double speed" connection to RAM that the 415/420 has. And that can't be good for anything I'd say

Check it out at Tomshardware, I forgot the details...
