| aagitch's Full Review: EliteGroup K7S5A Motherboard |
I was reluctant to purchase the board at first because i am a big fan of Abit. I needed to spend as little as possible because i was building a system for my sister. I read reviews about this and all were good. When i received, installation was simple and had no setup problems. Windows was an easy install. This board has pretty good performance. Doesn't have much for overclocking abilities. Onboard lan is a big plus. Sound is of good enough quality unless you're a gamer. I like the option of either DDR memory or the older pc133. This can't keep you from having to upgrade memory as well. I have built about 5 computers with this board for friends and family and none have had any problems. I read in an article that this board doesn't work well with cheap generic memory. well i had some cheap memory that wouldn't work in two performance systems of mine. I figured what the heck and put it in this board. it worked great and still does. That saved me even more money from having to buy name brand memory.
