Its an ECS board but asume its elite as well ??
Anyway i have a freind who has the board. And he is in desperate need
of an upgrade.
Hes got a think a XP 2700 cpu on it or i have been told. 333mhz FSB
that has right.
Does the K75SA have a 133 fsb. Or is that just the early revisions.
Does revison 3 have 333. He said he bought the cpu for the board so
iam alittle confused why he got a 333 fbs chip as it would be alittle
unused ?
Also he wants to upgrade to a Nvidia 6600 videocard AGP. Iam not sure
if the board even has AGP well alteast revision 3.
Also iam not sure what voltage the agp port is if it has it is. From
what i read 1.5 volt sis for the old cards and 3.3 is for the new
cards.
If he can fit a 6600 on that board woudl be nice to know.

Thanks for any help.
Bye.
You asked several questions I can answer: Is ECS same as
Elite?.....Yes. "Does the K75SA (sic) have a 133 fsb. Or is that just the
early revisions. Does revison 3 have 333."
All the K7S5A's have both a 100 and a 133 fsb, but they are BAD about
'losing their cmos settings' when they are set to 133, as they for some
unknown reason fall back to 100 fsb. No revision of that mobo has a fsb of
333.
HTH, & good luck, s
