I just got a ASUS A7V motherboard which came with the KT266 chipset. I just want to know what is the different between the KT266 and KT266A chipset. Is it a lot worst than the KT266 chipset. Thanks

The KT266A is not worse than the KT266 chipset, in fact, its quite the opposite. The Kt266A has vastly superior performance over the KT266.

They fixed the memory controller in the northbridge...deeper pipelines, optimized timings, etc. It translates into a significant increase in system performance varying from different applications from ~10%-25%.

I am sorry about the miscommunication. I meant is the KT266 worst than the KT266A. That is supposed to be the question. Anyway, I guess I should have gone with the KT266A chipset
