Best KT333 Motherboard?


Recommended Posts

Im building a new rig:

AMD XP 2000+

Motherboard ???

Samsung Orig 512 MB PC2700 DDR333

PNY Geforce 4 ti 4400

Soundblaster Live Platinum 5.1

2 Western Digital 100 gig 7200 Rpm

Im am wondering if anyone has any suggestions on a good KT333 motherboard, right now I'm pretty set on the MSI Kt3 Ultra, but I was just looking for any suggestions before I purchase. The Gigabyte GA-7vrxp sounded real good, but I heard some real horror stories about that board.

MSI's is pretty neat, it comes with an optional boot light indicator that tells you what's going on during boot and helps in diagnostics if your comp won't start. That's what I got on a suggestion from the forums :) It's perty too.

Anandtech.com also recently had a KT333 roundup. With both reviews, Asus A7v333 was the top 3 boards. I would get an Asus for it's known stability and overclock ability. I currently have KT266A so I will just wait for the KT400 to come out.

Yes the EpoX is speed king but does have some stability issues :ermm:

Ok I had the 8k3a since a week after it came out and had 0 stability problems. So I don't no where you're coming from with that.

I read on tomshardware i think it was not sure but the epox is a bit unstable :ermm:

There have always been memory problems with epox boards, but if you get the good crucial stuff you should be alright, just make sure that its the NON ECC.

Well I read Sharky's review at sharkyextreme.com, so I finally ordered from Newegg.com:

Athlon XP 2000+

MSI KT3 Ultra-ARU

512MB Corsair XMS PC2700 Memory

Hope everything works out well when I get it :)
