Asus A7V133 is just as stable as MSI K7T Turbo-R!

Well, the Asus did beat both the MSI and Abit boards, though by a minute margin, and it was confirmed that it "only" usea a 2-phase power solution.
 
I still need to know if the A7V133 will support fast Athlons! (Paliminos)

Asus' website says up to 1Ghz but there is a review somewhere that tests it at 1333Mhz and works fine (see the A7V133 thread in the articles forums there is a link over there)....so it would appear to work above 1Ghz...

I know it only has 2 phase power, but is this 3 phase thing necessary for higher speed CPUs?

If the A7V133 can handle higher speed CPUs it will be my next board 🙂
 
Both are great boards,but normally MSI are slightly cheaper,also the model Anand tested was (MSI) a pre-production model so it should be interesting to see if the full production model is the same standard or better if that`s possible,but with either board you can`t go wrong.

🙂.
 
Well, I'm stumped on which to get too. 🙂 Anyway, has anyone confirmed what MSI uses for the phase power solution?
 
bacillus: Thanks!!! 🙂😀😎

Sweet baby a TBird at 1.5Ghz! And the Palimino is suppose to have lower power consumption than the TBird. I think we can rest our fears 🙂

A7V133 here I come 🙂😀
 
PCI slots clinched it for me. 5 on the ASUS vs. 6 on the MSI. Also, the MSI's a smaller board so it fits into smaller, crappy cases like mine.
 
I've been saying it before, Abit is using marketing hype with 3 phase power. Eventually we will need 3 phase, but not for anything that will work on KT133 or KT133A boards.
 
No DaddyG... 1 Ghz according to AMD techdocs draws 31A at 1.75 thats 54.25W.... Radiate says 54.3W... pretty close eh? Infact at 1.2Ghz Radiate UNDER calculates the W.... at 1.2Ghz according to techdocs is 38A times 1.75 is 66.5W... Radiate only says 63.5.

So Radiate will be about right maybe even under. Hes running 2.4VCore thats high.
