GA-7VTX

AND THIS ONE

GA-7VTXH


NOW I keep seeing references made to the 266 chpset and the 266a chipset, but lloking at the spec between the 2 MB's i see the vtxh has a 266a chipset and the7vtx has the VIA VT8366 chipset ????

Now i am confused also looking on diferent sites for reviews i find the vtx on some of them but they look different namely the fan is missing from all screen shots on any board but mine has one on top that gold chip thing in the middle of the board???

so what i want to know is this..

i have the ga-7vtx and it seems rather good fast etc but what are the fundemental differences between these 2 boards and is the 7vtx and good ?????

thanks in advance

ga-7vtx is fine if its not giving you grief....vtxh is ...supposedly better but ....I would take that w/ a grain o' salt... <edit> now ...see...you (in your description above) were saying vtxh and then you link to the newest version ( a completely different animal ) the vtxh + ...still same opinion applies if not causing you grief...................
