I hope that this info will help someone who will buy this board to decide whic CPU is best choise... Im order this commell LS-373 board and Intel P8400 CPU...

[galvitron]

It's a sick board. U should buy it and post Record Boot Times (8 sec?).

[galvitron]

I don't know if you can find it in Ljubjana though...

[_Dejan_]

I don't know how long take bios boot but I hope it is quicker than on my Via NX board(bios take 15s )...

Im contact ALL distributors in Europe and all sell board only to company's except one in italy and Slovenia If I buy it in italy board cost 250€(Euro) + 70€ shipping, but If I buy it in Slovenia then cost me 280€ but I must wait because on 4-10 january they will order new things from commel and they will send board together with other things...
I will post results when I get it... I hope that Vista will work on it(Hibryd sleep)...

[galvitron]

(bios take 15s )

That's fast

but If I buy it in Slovenia then cost me 280€ but I must wait because on 4-10 january they will order new things from commel and they will send board together with other things...

Sounds like your best bet. That's less than what I could get it for plus shipping to EU.

[galvitron]

Also, no Vista drivers (no drivers at all, as a matter of fact):

[_Dejan_]

What if you look on this page
LINK: http://www.commell.com.tw/Support/SBC/LS-373(S).htm

You will find XP, vista32bit and vista64bit drivers

[galvitron]

^^^ Haha nice.

Guess I should have been more thorough in my research. Commell is IMO one of the best Asian manufacturers. They are first to market with all kinds of tiny late-gen Intel chipsets. Soon, Commell will come out with a P45 that takes DDR3-1066 in a 3.5" board.
