VIA KT 133 is shit. PCI bandwidth is <40% than Bx chipset

"yes. there was.

however, rainer "dr. pc" hain from "keyboards" says it´s gone with the current bios version.

the new boards featuring the new chipset version kt133a should already have that bios.

but you question the wrong one, my machines are intel only

yet...

...I'm talking about the Asus A7V series.
Sorry, I forgot to tell in the beginning.

yes, the a7v has got the kt133, there are certainly some older boards out there with old bios versions.

rainer hain told me about his test-system (a7v & pulsar2 etc...) he used about several months, and his point was that with new bios versions there are as less problems as there are with bx.
because of that statement i think the boards with the newer chipset version (kt133a) are recommendable (also for pulsar), but as long as creamware isn´t able to say what chipset design is best for their product, we can only test and quiz (;

gruß,
