I am looking to upgrade my smoking K63-400. I have 2 options I am looking at, but can't decide. Let me know what you think...especially if you have experience with these parts. I would like to hear about the A7M266 from those who have used it.
Abit KT7A RAID
2 IBM 45gigs
TBIRD 1.1gig
384meg PC133
OR
Asus A7M266
TBIRD 850
256meg PC2100 DDR
1 IBM 45gig
The prices are similar. The Asus allows for future CPU upgrades and is top of the line, but with the Abit I can get the faster CPU and 2 IBM's to RAID. I might be bale to get a TBIRD 900 or so with the Asus for a similar price, not sure.
