This is mostly just general ramblings, but think about what I am thinking.
Obviously the KT133A has the same pinout as the KT133 or it would have taken a LOT longer for motherboard manufacturers to get them validated and out the door. An easy drop in replacement.
One of the biggest complaints of the KX and KT chipsets up until this point has been the lack of FSB options (feasible ones anyway) above about 110.
How awesome would it be if a simple bios update could turn a KT133 into a KT133A. I notice alot of bios upgrades coming out to be used on both sets of boards (i.e. Abit KT7 and Abit KT7A using the same bios). Is it possible that maybe we can open up that 133 fsb now?
I am wondering if there is an option in the KT133A for HstClk+PCI like the KT133. Talk about memory bandwidth if you could get a 133 (266 effective) FSB with a 166 Memory Bus.
Anyone have any ideas if/how this might be accomplished? Probrably a pipe dream but is obviously something simple or it would have taken longer to get it out the door. Just a though.
