What brand?

Do you know anything about Shuttle HOT-553 (430HX) motherboards with Cyrix
chips? The manual implies that a VRM is required for Cyrix 6x86 chips, but
I'm running mine without one (as are two of my friends). However, the
voltage regulator runs REALLY REALLY hot (untouchable for more than about
0.1 seconds). Do you sell VRM boards suitable for the Cyrix? I'll be adding
another fan just to cool the heatsink as soon as I can get one.


Regards,
Hamish
