| timb21's Full Review: Abit KA7 |
I bought this board online for the way less then its listed MSRP. It came in a retail box and looked pretty nice. Putting together a computer with this board is very close to flawless. I put a 750mhz Athlon in it and some older components that I had from my previous computer. There wasn't one crazy error message due to a component not being supported. I installed Windows 2000 Professional on the board which ran fine on the first try. I like this board cause It is upgradable to a 1 gigabyte processor and supports up to 2GBs of memory. This board has been running cool for the last 4 months and I see no future problems. It might not be the hottest thing on the market anymore, but it is still worth its weight in gold. I recommend this for anyone looking for an economical upgrade. But be aware that this board supports the classic Slot A Athlon, not the new Socket style Thunderbird.
