I had a Shuttle board and a 2 ghz Celeron, and the via chipset board sucked horribly. I finally gave up when it would act funky just booting up. I put the cpu into an ASUS board, and it ran like a top, and ran at 2.66 Ghz, and was more stable than the shuttle at 2 gig.

I have given up VIA as a chipset maker, SiS seems to do okay on cheap chipsets. For fast machines, I like Intel chipsets.
