Pros: High quality motherboard with overclocking features to match
Cons: Not the most stable motherboard and doesn't use new DDR memory
The Bottom Line: Cant be beat in terms of an SDRAM motherboard with great overclocking features and flexibility.

| dan9993's Full Review: Abit KT7A-RAID Motherboard |
When I purchased this motherboard, I was going for a high quality motherboard that would allow great overclocking potential. I got exactly what I was looking for. The Softmenu feature on this motherboard allows the user to change multiplier, FSB speed, Vcore, and chipset voltage all from the bios. I personally dont use the raid feature, but what I do use the highpoint raid controller for ata100 HDs.
If you are reading this now looking for a great motherboard for overclocking, you might want to look into DDR motherboards. Although, if that doesn't float your boat, this motherboard definetly has utilized the kt133a chipset correctly. I would recommend the AMD760 chipset for DDR motherboards because the via kt266 is not the highest quality chip and I would not put it in my computer.
Conclusion- If you are going for a nice SDRAM overclocking motherboard, this is it. If instead you are going for DDR, look for a nice board with the AMD 760 chipset.
