    I am having Elite Group K7S5A with an Athlon XP 1700 for more than a year and I am very happy. The reason I am writting this post is for people who say that the M/B is not good and especially for those who say that it freezes. I had this problem too. The only thing you have to do is to update the mo ...

    Recently had a K7S5A burn out. Turns out there are some issues with poor quality capacitors. Buyer beware!

    Following on from my last post: I was recently playing with the BIOS on my mobo. I, although as Ive previously said have a solid working system, was able to reproduce your problem easily. The problem came when changing the cycle speed of the CPU itself from 100mhz to 133mhz. Switching on with th ...

    Good board. When you consider the price, the choice goes from good to Great. Have 2, one with XP1700+, one with XP2000+, both run with no problems. I leave the systems on 24/7 for months at a time.

    In my experience, having built 8 PCs with this board..it's very reliable and cost-effective and provides a viable alternative to ABIT or ASUS products. However I have experienced problems with some holding BIOS settings, or turning off without notice. Returned for an exchange at the store from which ...
