[chrisojeda]

According to this review of the first production motherboard using the VIA KT266 it appear that the chipset may be promising after all....

Its odd I was just going to put that address in this forum. The address I ended with was _1887. It was a comparison review of the MSI entrant to the 266 arena against a Iwill 266 with the ALI chipset, the K7 master with AMD/760,a Abit Kt133A and the K7pro 2A 133.
Leave it to MSI to make it better.

Lets hope that the other mobo makers can quickly follow MSI's example.

The ASUS A7V266 (KT266 chipset) should be out in a week or two.

Right now im planning on the MSI K7T266 Pro. Where is the info page for the Asus A7V266? I couldn't find it on there site, and that would be the only competition(in my eyes) that will be out around same time.

Damn... just when I thought it was all up to the 761 chipset of AMD, MSI pull this little pearler... beauty!



Australian PMs are like steer horns; a point here, a point there, & a heap of bull in the middle.

What makes it even better is the fact that I just ordered one!

Booky~ I see that you finally gave up on getting a K7Master. Sounds like the K7Master's scarcity worked to your advantage as the new K7T266PRO sounds great (certainly less expensive than the 'Master' and probably faster)!

Where did you find it so soon???

 

[Booky]

Yep it sure did. I guess it is a blessing that K7 Master was impossible to find. I found the K7T266 on pricewatch. There are two companies with them, CDExpress and Allstar Microelectronic Inc. I went with Allstar since they had a better rating with resellerratings.com.
