Poll: ABIT KT7a vs. ASUS A7V

[giambi77]

With both having the same chipset (KT133a) which is better for overclocking? Which is more stable? I will be getting a 1.2-1.3 T-bird, if that helps any.

Feel free to vote on the POLL!!!

I have tried the boards you mention, however I choose the iWill kk266....oops that's not in the poll.

 

[giambi77]

Heh...well....what made you like the iWill better then the other ones?

 

[LaRnZ1]

well ive only had my t-bird 900 on a abit kt7a for 3 days but GWWAAAAD Damn i lub this board can you say overclocking options galore?

 

[LXi]

Just to let you know, Iwill's and Asus' overclocking options matches Abit's from head to toe.

 

[John]

More options in the BIOS to tweak memory performance, and it shows.

I'm pretty sure the A7V uses the KT133 chipset. The A7V133 uses the KT133A chipset. Minor details.

 

[Quatsino]

Don't wanna be to non-specific but... both are good choices. Mine is the Asus board.

 

[giambi77]

Yeah, I meant to put A7V133 heh

 

[giambi77]

Added the iWill kk266 to the POLL Hope your happy John!

I would choose the Iwill, the layout is pure perfection, unless that mess on the Asus board. The performance is very close, and tweaking options are also available. Plus its got 6PCI/1ISA which is a big plus compare to 5PCI/1CNR.

 

[IaPuP]

I say avoid Asus like the plague.

Terrible customer service and support. =-)

I have had all three boards and have been able to overclock the highest on the Iwill but there all nice boards.

 

[giambi77]

Huh, never heard about ASUS's customer service - guess I better steer clear. I just read a review on the iWill and I am liking it more and more.

Still open to thoughts/sggestions/comments/ect.
