Does K7S5A PRO have same problem as K7S5A (sorry wrong topic-closed)

[BehindEnemyLines]

Didn't realized I just posted in the for sale section. Where's the delete post anyway? I can't find it.

I'm considering getting the K7S5A PRO version but don't know if it has the same problems as (lost CMOS...etc) the K7S5A (I don't know which version since the majority of posts just say K7S5A) has.

Does it have any annoyances or problems I should know? I'm considering running it with an Athlon XP 1700+ or 1800+ with a 350W fortron/sparkle fsp350 model for $48 shipped from newegg and (2) 256MB RAM PC133. It'll also have a 5400rpm HD, TV tuner, sound card (if required), NIC (if required), cdrw, and dvd rom.

Will this setup work well? Do I need a different PSU?

I built about 5 k7s5a ver.1.3 and never have any problems? the pro version has USB 2.0, thats the only diff. I think?

I got the ordinary K7S5A ver 3.1 and it works great.

Spend the extra dough and get the DDR ram PC2700.

Which TV tuner card are you thinking of getting? There have been many complaints about the ATI version. I used the MSI TV@nywhere and it works very well. The only draw back is it is a mono only card. Not sure if that is a software limitation or a hardware limitation.
