Good Points
Good CPU support, 8 ide device support through raid, 266 FSB
Bad Points
Expensive still in comparison to new DDR mobo's which are way better, extensive problems with memory modules and soundcards.
General Comments
After owning one Abit KT7a RAID motherboard and testing four of these motherboards I can firmly say that I regret buying one. In all tests the boards had problems with using multiple ram modules, singles were fine. Also it has a bad history with soundcards, notably SB lives. It is still very expensive in regards to the new boards on the market, especially since it has no ddr support. The main gripe however is that the after sales support for abit products is dire. After testing I emailed abit and the result was: 'sorry but the problems are known and unsolvable, you'll have to try different combinations', yeah cause I'm made of money. Likewise to say they went back.
Don't buy anymore, stick to new Mobos like Solteks SL75-drv4. That has stability, reliability unlike Abit products!
