Motherboard replacement: 7VT600 1394 for 7VAXP?

Archived from groups: alt.comp.periphs.mainboard.gigabyte (More info?)

Greetings. My PC recently died on me, and I've diagnosed it as a bad
motherboard. My previous board was a Gigabyte 7VAXP. Looking around
briefly, it looks like I could still get a direct replacement, but for
about half the price I could get a 7VT600 1394, which has all the
functions I need (I never used the RAID or overclocking features on
the 7VAXP). It appears that the chipset cooler I have on the KT400
will fit the KT600 just fine, so my big question is this: can I drop
in the 7VT600 as a replacement for the 7VAXP and reasonably expect it
to work? If not, what kind of problems am I likely to see?

Thank you,
David Murphy
