BladeRunner 0 Posted August 25, 2000 I'm trying to source a motherboard for a friend. What he really, really needs is a Athalon board but with on-board FireWire, do they exist? If not, can anybody recommend a good FireWire add-in PCI card and give us a couple of web links? Cheers. ------------------ PIII 700E, Intel D815EEA, 512MB PC100 RAM (Hyundai), Matrox G400MAX, SB Live!

Bursar 0 Posted August 25, 2000 Long time no speaky! Anyway, how about this: FC-PGA VIA 594x ATX + Firewire only £95.00 + VAT from Dabs. It's a Socket 370 board, with a VIA chipset. Not quite what you were after, but not bad to start with. Alternatively, check out: http://www.pccablesdirect.com/products/1394dv.htm It's a write up of the Pyro DV card. You can buy the card from Simply at £69 + VAT It give 3 firewire ports, and comes with one cable. Beware that cables run for approximately £50 each. Laters. Share this post Link to post
