Conclusion :Chaintech put an attractive price-tag on their Springdale motherboard, it can had found for less than
$90!. This makes it an interesting deal if you are building a new system and want a good price/performance ratio.
I had no issues with this motherboard and it worked straight out the box, overclocking went smooth and easy, although it won't give you insane FSB speeds. If Firewire/IEEE1394 would have been integrated into this board I'd be even happier :). The 9PJL2 is a solid performer able to keep up with the Canterwood boards and its closest Springdale rivals.
