I've found a board--it's not the K7pro, but it's a good one!
Yo!
If you have one, or have another Irongate Slot A mobo with the same features (must have voltage & FSB tweaks in BIOS) email me (
lhiggs@wwisp.com). Thanks much!

i believe you are lookin for the k7tpro 2a
the pro does not have the multiplier
the k7t pro has the fsb .... but you really cant overclock with it becasue the pci fsb i think it is
it does have the voltage settings but now multipier settings .... jsut thought i would let you know if you did not already know

Hey. Thanks, Joe, for the bump (bumpin is part of pimpin, of course).
I am, though, looking for the K7pro w/-110 clock generator. Here's a link:
http://www.slota.com/reviews/msi/k7pro/. It does have voltage and FSB settings in BIOS. The KX133 boards offer some more features--but my Radeon and SBLive! tend to have "issues" with VIA that the Irongate chipset doesn't have (and I have seen very little REAL difference in performance).

ahhhhh. Lawton.
I have one but you can't have it. Nice board tho. If you have a slot a classic or T-bird, that's the mobo to have. Toss some good RAM in there, enable the Super bypass and ya have a nice box. Mine OCs all the way up to 119 FSB but not MHz higher.
What ever you do, DON'T get a K7M . Those things are THE WORST. Stinkers w/ OCing and terrible layout which prohibits the use of most decent fan/hs's.
you prolly knew all this stuff already dint you! :lol
Cheers, tw

Yep, Todd knows his Slot A mobos!
I have an 850 classic running at just over 900 on one now, and my T-bird 700 is crying to get out of the no-frills MS-6191 that she's stuck on at the moment.
I can buy one new for around $90 (including shipping), but I figured there's no use in looking here first.

Hey. I'm buying Carl's Epox KX133 board & moving my Ath850 over to it (I broke down and bought a new SlotA 900 T-bird for my home system--I figure I'll get a Gig or close from it on the K7pro I already have).
Woo hoo hoo!
