    Question AMD Approved Motherboards

    Am I just losing my (cranial) memory, or has AMD changed the approved motherboard lists for Duron and Athlon? I thought Soyo and Abit used to be on there, for example.

    I wouldnt worry too much if Abit was dropped cause they are a most reputable builder (maybe they didnt pay their "juice" money last quarter), but in the case of Soyo, I would be a bit (not to be confused with Abit!) more cautious.

    Well, the Abit KT7 made it back onto the Duron and Thunderbird listings. The "juice" concept did occur to me, Randy_tx. I'm having trouble understanding how a motherboard that could handle a 1.2GHz Thunderbird suddenly is not even good enough for a 600MHz Duron! I don't have as much faith in AMD's motherboard listings, but I still like their picks for power supplies.
