Don't buy it. It appears that VIA has out-sourced hardware manufacturing and promised to provide the software support, but has let down their end badly.

VIA also used the community to unload known defective stock of the 8750 that it still has not fixed, and refuses to support. They basically ignore the forum that they set up for the product. Even posts talking about class action suits, simple requests for updates or info, anything that requires them to care, they ignore.

Stay away.
