(this is correct, right?  also, does anyone know what the 430VX
	chipset used in the ASUS P55TVP4 is?)

<tag>Triton-II <em>(ie, 430HX)</em>:</tag>
All reports on motherboards using
this chipset have been favorable so far. Although, some
have said that if you are using ECC memory, be sure to get a
motherboard with the A2 or later steppings of the 82439HX
Triton-II chipset. Don't get this confused with the 82371SB
stepping - you have an A2 stepping if the 82439HX chip has a
marking of "SU102". You have an A1 stepping if it's not
marked with an S-number or if the number is "SU087".
