I replaced an 8kta2 for an MSI pro2a
and now I am shaking myself wondering why.
The 8kta2 performed predictably and flawlessly
and although the pro2a is far from horrible, it's
not what i'd call issue free.
I don't like the power management of the pro2a (no wake on mouse by default or any way I can find) and my optical usb mouse doesn't seem to like the board (flickers on and off)and doesn't
do it in other systems.
So I guess the moral is to get what works and then just LEAVE IT ALONE.
Having said all that, I think the 8kta3+ will be really yummy with 133mhz fsb
as well as RAID onboard!
GAWD, think I just found my next board of the month.
