[DARTHPCSERVER]

hey people, I've been using the asus a7v for about 2 mos,I can't up the fsb it becomes very unstable, I have my 900 tbird at 10.5x100.. so I sold my a7v to a friend and ordered the abit kt7a..I'm hoping to see 140x7.5 atleast..I'm using crucial 133@144 2-2-2..I was thinking of picking up a stick of mushkin rev3 and pushing it to 160 2-2-2..what do ya think about the new board and the mushkin???

I love mine, just put it in today. I bought a 600mhz duron and it and a alpha cooler with the delta fan. Well all i have is cheapo ram (pc133) and that 600 is running at 975 (130 * 7.5) and i just haven't played any further. But im using 4x interleaving and 4k paging on my ram and timing is set to medium, may go higher when testing but its stable as a rock so far. 40-42cat rest and 44-46c full load. Anyway im posting, same mips and mflops as a 1ghz pentium 3 and just a hair under a 1ghz athlon t-bird. So yes i like it. The KT7A has been great so far.

Sure it's worth it, especially if you got a reasonable price for the old board.
