They cut corners and got rid of some of the features on the K7S6A that they had on the K7S5A. I don't think I'd get that at all.

Or maybe get the MSI or Epox 745 board. Regardless, there's more to life than speed. VIA-based motherboards tend to be a lot of trouble. I have an ECS K7S5A in one system and love it--rock solid.
