Ok guys, I was originally really excited about ordering a abit kt7a, UNTIL, I looked around on the boards here and saw all of your "input" on VIA chipsets. I am now, all turned around and don't have a clue what way i'm going to go. I had originally read nothing but good reviews on the kt7a, good performance for the price, (a bit dated now) but i don't need the NEWEST stuff. Right now i'm using a friggin GigaByte k6-2 500mhz ali. POO. heh, so any suggestions or comments on my first post then please feel free.

SMIGGITY, SMIKE, SMIKEAROO, SMIKEASAURUS!

You will find some issues on virtually every board made. I use the shuttle ak31 version 3.1, and it has run pretty well for the last 3 months. Newegg has a refurbished one listed for only $59 with free shipping. Whatever you do, don't feel you have to use your old memory. I would make the switch to ddram. People recommend the Iwill xp333 with the slightly slower ali magic one chipset. ECS has a new board out soon, the K7S6A, that uses ddram and the sis 745 chipset. Only $69 for pre-order at newegg. I use onboard sound to avoid some via problems.
