Rating: Summary: Solid Motherboard Review: I am currently running THREE K7S5A PRO's, all run fantastic with Athlon XP 2400+'s! I also ran a plain K7S5A with an Athlon C 1400 for three years before a lightning-caused power surge taught me the value of quality surge protection (at the expense of my beloved Athlon 1400, etc).The K7S5A PRO has not given me one lick of trouble. It is a nice, fast chipset and it runs more stable with Windows XP than any other motherboard I have used (and I have used many). Also, you can't beat the price! The one drawback (if it matters to you) is that the K7S5A motherboards have NO overclocking options, only a 200/266MHz bus speed switch. I would definitely recommend it if you are looking at a 200/266MHz bus Athlon.

Rating: Summary: 2 ecs board I bought and counting.... Review: I have never been so happy with a motherboard upgrade. Problem free all the way I have upgraded 2 systems already and about to start another one. ECS motherboard really suprised me with value as well as quality..... Very happy with ECS.......
Rating: Summary: Do Not Purchase! Review: I purchased this exact board from FRY's Outpost about 4 months ago. And I have had problems with it ever since. AMD is known to run hotter than Pen/Cel. but this is just crazy. Even with a fan it still no longer is working. I was checking my email, when all of a sudden my monitor just died. Went black. I tried changing monitors, graphic cards etc. Nothing works! However I know that it is still getting power. I contacted ECS and they told me to just contact my vendor. This was the 3rd time I would have had to return it. So, at this time I am fighting with the company, until they replace it. My advise, if you see the name ECS- RUN AWAY!!!
