    Which board should I use?

    I finally have the parts needed to build the test rig for my VFX1 but I have two motherboards and I don't know which one will do best.

    My first option is an AOpen AX34-U that needs racapping but I also have a QDI Advance 10T that visually looks fine but has green KZE caps for anything 1500uf and
    Licon caps for anything 1000uf.
    What I am going for are the available options and the performance I can get out of a 1.4Ghz Tualatin Celeron and 1Gb (2 x 512Mb) of PC133 Sdram as well as stability on Windows 2000 Pro. Which board would be best for the job?

    Bah!
    I just found out that Licon = bad.
    In that case I guess it might be better to stay with the AOpen board.

    Now for a question.
    Would ther be a problem with replacing the black Chemicons on the AX34-U with the green ones on the Advance 10T? They have the same rating and it would least mean that I have a complete set of 1500uf caps on the AX34-U. (They shaved a few pennies and put two crappy 1500uf caps in with the Chemicons)
