KT7A or not?

After years of Intel chips I am seriously thinking about jumping on the AMD bandwagon. I was thinking about getting the Abit KT7A, but reading recent posts about problems has made me hesitate. Does anybody have any good experiences with this ...

After years of Intel chips I am seriously thinking about jumping on the AMD bandwagon. I was thinking about getting the Abit KT7A, but reading recent posts about problems has made me hesitate. Does anybody have any good experiences with this board? How about a better recommendation? I use Win2k almost exclusively with Win Me as a last resort for games that don't like win2k. Win2k stability and performance is of the essence.

Hi, I was in the same situation as you, intel through and through, then i went for a 1.1Ghz TBird and a abit kt7, i had alot of problems with this board and sent it back and got a Asus a7v133 instead and it is 100% stable. This could have been because i changed my ram (most probably) i now have 128Mb cas2 133 mhz crucial ram and this definitly helps stability, so does a good power supply (300 watt or more).
Hope this helps

Tom

P.S. i am running win2k.
