<< There are a total of only two fan headers on the motherboard, one for the CPU HSF unit and one for the front chassis fan. This is odd since most of the time there are at least three fan headers, where one is for CPU HSF unit and two for chassis fans. In the PC Health panel inside BIOS, you will be able to read two temperatures and the speed of the two fans. >>
The KT7A has four, three of which I will be using...possible four if I plan on taking advantage of the three intakes fan spot in my case
<< Just like the EPoX board, you will need to set a jumper on the motherboard in order to go from the 100MHz ? 132MHz range to the 133MHz ? 166MHz range. This is much easier than setting the FSB speed using only jumpers or dipswitches, but it is just not as easy as the ABIT KT7A-RAID, which is fully jumperless. >>
Dipswitches are the devil
<< Also, as we mentioned before, our sample of the K7T Turbo does not have a HSF unit on the 8363A North Bridge. Instead they just put a normal heat sink on the North Bridge. From our testing we have shown that at 147MHz, the heat sink is still capable of cooling the North Bridge to a suitable range. On the other hand, since the memory is the limiting factor now, the question still remains on whether the North Bridge can stand the heat at even higher FSB speeds without a fan. >>
Yeah, let's go against the grain and not use a fan to save a few bucks...cheapskates!! No thank you!
I'm glad I ordered my Abit KT7A
