its the A7V333. soyo makes boards that are called K7V. and by the way the new soyo board, the K7V Dragon Ultra KT333 is better then the Asus board, the A7V333. the soyo has every feature that the asus does and more.

Would you care to be more specific? ...BTW, where is that Soyo board?

i just bought the soyo dragon+ i am very pleased with it. i have had no problems with it at all.

i went to the tomshardware forums and all i got was this lousy signature.

I was half right about the Dragon Ultra. It is SIS645, but apparently they're also releasing the name for KT333. Here are some pictures: <A HREF="http://www.vr-zone.com/cgi-bin/vb/showthread.php?s=ad771f2663e8387923a1c3f7c6144cb2&threadid=3009" target="_new">Soyo Dragon Ultra KT333</A>

Thank God Soyo k7v Ultra kt333 supports AMD processors. Intel charges an arm and a leg and their performance is similar to AMD. Speaking of AMD, can you overclock an AMD XP1900+ using Volcano 7 heatsink fan?

A burned software is not pirated software, it is shareware. :wink:

Just one more suggestion for you. If you really are interested in the KT333 Mobo and don't want to wait for the ASUS or SOYO boards to come into stock, you might consider the <A HREF="http://www.giga-byte.com/products/7vrxp.htm" target="_new">Gigabyte 7vrxp</A>. Its in stock at NewEgg.com and the price is already down to $132 (from the $138 I paid for mine). I've had it for a few weeks and it really is sweet. It is stable as a rock and comes packed with just about everything you could want. Also consider the OCZ PC3000 memory, which can run at CL 2.0 at 333.
