I was all ready to order the Asus A8V motherboard for use with an AMD FX-53 chip, until I was reading some other threads where certain users are saying that VIA is "complete and total junk" and that the NFORCE 3 chipset is the ONLY way to go. Is this true? I purchased an ASUS A7V way back when it first came out, ( the first day the board was available to order) and it was the biggest biece of shit I had ever used. They finally got the board lined out about 13 bios release's later, but I sent that board back, and other than that this is my first AMD system. I have heard VIA has come a long way, etc... but reading these user's posts has made me "skidish" about ordering a VIA chipset board. Are they right? Please let me know as I need to get a board ordered ASAP.
