KT133A boards

[Mean MrMustard]

How come there is so many people talking about problems they've had with the A7V133? Yet when the A7V133 is the most recommended board out there. I can't decide which to get because of this.

IMHO, also from experience, people are having trouble when an o/c doesn't work and the BIOS needs to be flashed.
my headache

I don't plan on overclocking, though.

Plus, since it's the most popular motherboard in these forums, it's bound to have the most problems as well, even if it's a very small percentage.

I second that notion!! There have been so many horror stories posted with the A7V133 only because it is so popular, and really about the best KT133A MB available. Even though my A7V133 died (it would POST a second time after setting the voltage to 1.85V), I still think it is a great MB. It is a fact that ever MB will have its quirks, it is only a matter of finding a MB whose quirks don't interfere with your setup.

From most of the places I've looked the IWILL KK266 is rated higher, and a little bit cheaper too. If you get either one of these you should be fine.
