Gotey: You said the magic words: "Version 1.3 of the KT7A..." You were right to go for it. Alas, I got one of the first -- version 1.0 -- so the Duron 1000 is out for me. Think I'll go the Athlon 1.33 or 1.4.

Gotey: Sorry, my last message was meant for you.

I'm interested in your decision to spend the money for a CPU Abit says, in every way possible, the KT7A won't support. What made you decide, and which bios are you using?

Seems MilPowder R forgot his manners...or his meds. Or both.

Really not bad news. The bad news was not knowing. This was for a second computer I'm putting together, so I'll just drop back to the 950 or 900 (any thoughts?) and hope I get a good chip for overclocking. Face somewhat the same situation with my KT7A, but with it I'm more than happy enough...

Good to know, but was it an Abit KT7? Have no doubt that a KT133 board could do, but it's old story of different boards & bioses...

The different revisions are critical to the KT7A, version 1.3 taking a bios that will support Athlon XP's -- and for sure the Morgan Durons. I need to know just about the KT.

Seems like a simple enough question, but I can't get a straight answer. So, far I've had a 'yes, maybe' and a no, maybe.' Please set me straight.

Sounds like a simple question, but I can't get a simple answer. So far, I've gotten a 'yes because it's a 200MHz chip' and a 'no because it has same core as the Athlon XP.' Plus some folks who confused the KT7 and the KT7A. Please rescue me.

Don't think you'll find anyone (who's honest) getting anywhere near 133. Dejansen is doing better than darn good with 113.

Was afraid of where you seemed to be headed for awhile, but you ended up in a good spot.

Please post your best results. Currently running a 600@832.

Anyone tried this? My sense is KT7A with right BIOS will run Durons with the Morgan chip, but I can't find any confirmation in the language of Abit's BIOS descriptions.

<< check this place http://www.compgeeks.com/products.asp?cat=MBB KT7A-raid: $59 + S/H KT7-Raid: $49 + S/H Still in stock, and shipping is reasonable. >> Don't do it! These boards are revision 1.2. You want v 1.3. Now that'd be a deal.

Don't do it! NO KT 133A board is a good choice. If you really want to save $, get Newegg's EPOX EP-8KHA for a mere $54. Biggest bang for the buck I can remember seeing anywhere.
