In Iwill's defence(and my own) the Revision C chipset, (this one) is 1000% better than the original. I waited for this board for a long time, based on the early buzz about it, and I was PISSED when they unveiled it...with the ALi. I went the KT266a route for awhile. A few surprising reviews later, I picked one up. Long story short...I own two now.
I'm kinda glad the KT333 wasn't as good as it should have been, self justification for my choice.
I have to admit though, it looks like I'll be jumping on the KT400(KT333a?)bandwagon next.
