ASUS K7V-T Motherboard Athlon Slot VIA KX133
The ASUS K7V-T mainboard isone of the best SLOT-A mainboards and will run any SLOT-A Athlon CPU you put in it. Starting with the very first Pluto CPUs as well as the Orion Athlon CPUs and of course the Thunderbird.
The VIA KX133 supports 1.5GB of PC133 SD-RAM, which gives the chipset a good performance advantage over AMDs Irongate chipset, which only supports 768 of PC100. If you build a performance retro system based on the SLOT-A the KX133 chipset is a very good choice. The AGP suppot is good, stable, and decent fast. If you plan to build a retro gaming system with a highend AGP card installed, like the Voodoo 5 5500 AGP this board will do just fine.The fact, that the K7V-T has very modern I/O ports for the time it´s from along with a robust power stabilisation makes it the perfect choice for a Windows retro gaming system.
A Voodoo3 or Voodoo 5 5500 AGP graphics card, or a simple Riva128 along with one or two Voodoo 2 cards (see my other offers) are a decent choice for this board.
Since it has no onboard sound (and who would want that anyway) you should add a soundcard too. Maybe a Creative Soundblaster X-Fi PCI on the one end or, if you want to go the retro way, you may use a MediaVision Pro Audio Spectrum 16 ISA card. After all it has an ISA slot to do just this (or install other ISA cards).
You may find all mentioned parts (like Voodoo, Soundblaster etc.) in my other offers. If you buy more than one item, drop me a message first if you like and I will cut you a good deal here on ebay.
The K7V-T mainbaord is used but in good condition. The newest BIOS is installed.
