Ok, would all this work?

[bob05]

Is the following list of computer parts compatible???:

Soyo 7VEM Socket 370

INTEL Celeron 1.0A Ghz Socket 370

MICRON 256MB DIMM PC133 7.5ns Unbuffered Memory

Maxtor 40GB 5400rpm 512MB Buffer ATA-100

Goldstar 52X EIDE CD-Rom

Generic Internal (Lucent Chipset) 56K PCI V.92 Hardware
************************************************
now will all these parts work together? ok when i mean compatible i mean can the mobo support an ATA-100, can the CPU work on the mobo, can the ram work on the mobo, etc.......................

If you have any comments or concerns about the computer, please post them!

Thanxs

Yes that should work but I would recommend not getting that mobo. From Soyo

I would get the Soyo SY-TISU from http://www.inca-city.com/soysytmot.html

its 50 bucks and much better than 7Vem

I would ditch the Celeron and get a Pentium III

[Benssax]

Yea PIII is a good idea

[bob05]

i don't have the money right now but soon i will i just wanted to make sure it would all work

For the difference in price, the Celeron 1.0A is the smart buy. It has 256KB on-die cache and a .13 micron Tualatin core. It's a better CPU than the 1.0 P3 non-Tualatin and costs $100 less than either P3.

Cel 1.0A = $70
P3 1.0 = $172
P3 1.0T (FPGA2) = $175

Yup! The soyo tisu is a really nice board. I have one running in my secondary box with a PIII 1ghz chip (not tualatin) but will be soon as they get a tad lower in price. The only problem I've had is being able to get true temp reading's with the hardware moniter that comes with the board. Board will O/C nicely, but quite frankly I tend to leave it stock. memory is limited to 512mb and you cant use anything higher than a 256 mb stick in each slot or it will hang or only recognize the 512 stick as 256. came with old revision of bios and was able to flash to new revision w/o incedent. The only reason it became my secondary board was because I wanted to switch to using ddr mem and I recently purchased a agp card using ddr ram so I figured the combo might afford me some more options. we shall see.
P.S. I also have a 1.2a celeron sitting in a retail box here with stock hsf that I havent tried yet. Picked it up for $89 about 2 months ago. Anybody using one let me know what ya think about it.

[bob05]

unfortatnutly the SOYO site says it can't handle .13 micron, therefore no Tualatin

[BipolarBill]

So get the7VEM Pro.

Better yet...

Take the tisu board it's not a micro and it's only $34 more most places. But heck if your not O/c'n. ECS P6S5AT works fine. Takes tualatin chips, sdr or ddr mem, and it's only $45 list. seems to be stable so far as i been trying to make this one I'm usin right now screw-up and it's held it's own.

They SY-TISU suports a Tualatin Chips.. Here it is..

Fine...you pay the $100 difference.

A Tualatin based Celeron is a much better buy than a Coppermine based PIII, if that's what we're talking about.
