Introduction

A® has never been at the top of my list when it comes to the important choice of selecting a motherboard for my system. But yes, I did choose this board to review, so why did I select it? Well, because of a couple of things that I felt were worth having. First off is the Via KT400 chipset, and second, the EZ Win Flash utility.

The KT400 chipset was chosen for the stability of VIA drivers and also VIA’s chipset support has also been proven over a long period of time. EZ Win Flash is a great utility that lets you update your BIOS from within Windows® itself. Of course if you have a window in your killer tower, the color of this stealth black motherboard is another good reason. But how well does this motherboard perform, is it stable and how well does it handle over clocking?
