If you want to use an XP and DDR333 I suggest an Iwill XP333R
or a new KT333 mobo. Probably about $30-40 cheaper than
the Abit anyhow.

imo if you want a board for ddr333 then wait a week or two for the A7V333 or something along that line. the iwill isnt the greatest performer, even compared to the kr7a. im planning on buying a kr7a myself, as i dont see the kt333 being a huge improvement worth waiting and shelling out more for, especially with kt400 (perhaps) just around the corner.

im sure they are. they will most likely have some awesome boards with their new max series, and i think their kt333 boards will be out in a few weeks (or so ive heard). though i have heard of some problems with the KT333 in the A7V333 and comparisons to the original KT266 :( basically if you are going with a KT333, wait a while untill there are some solid review and you can really see what kinks are left to be worked out, and see whether you can live with them.
