Epox 8k7a

[IronManRR]

I just bought an Epox 8k7a. Will receive it in few days. Since I bought it, I read that there are many issues with the board....mostly the 686b southbridge.....«[-peep-] VIA idiots».

1- With all the new drivers and bios installed...is it ok to plug my Sb live value ( the original)

2- To I have to install VIA shitty 4-1

3- To i have to install AMD Drive pack 1.2

4- Any other issues that i should be aware off???

5- Is it ok to plug my Vantec 6035D on my mobo fan header??

Take your sound card and sell it on Ebay, then buy yourself a Philips Acoustics Edge--all problems solved.

Epox 8K7A is a good o/c board and the 686B is fine when its set up properly, Sb live has some issues with Via so dont use it. Not a good idea if that Vantec is a 7000rpm fan as it does draw a lot of power, get a 3 pin to 4 pin molex adapter then unclip the rpm wire (usually the other wire thats not red or black) > put that in a new 3 pin plug in the corresponding position> plug it into the MB header and wallah! you have rpm readings and the correct power supplied.
