the 8k7a is known for hitting high fsbs, it has a great chipset, 6 pci, raid etc.

the only faults I can find with it are 5v rail problems (which are easy to fix) and 2 ram slots (which you mightn't even care about)

sure the kt266a is a little bit faster, but no way is it worth paying all the extra $$$ on

but basically i have the soyo in my hands, and can use it, or just keep the 8K7A, and give the soyo to the other person. so with money not an issue, what would you do?

i think i am going to drop the XP1900+ in the 8K7A, see what it can do. then switch out mobos, and see how close i can get to the 8K7A with the Soyo. if it's not even close, then i will keep the 8K7A, if it is reasonably close, i'll keep the soyo, as it is a very spiffy mobo!

I dunno, I'd probably try both, and see which one you prefer. the soyo will give you more per mhz, but the 8k7a will probably let you hit a higher fsb.

just try both
