Aopen does not have as much name-brand recognition in the motherboard market as some of the other big names have. However, they are very involved in components, and have a very full line including video cards, such as TNT2-based products, DVD-ROMs, CD-Rs, and of course, motherboards. Aopen has a full line of motherboards, based anywhere from old-school TX, to LX, and BX motherboards. They also have Via Apollo ones, for all of the AMD users out there.
