"Last, and most importantly; from the Overclocker's point of view. The KT7A is still completely jumperless - all the processor variables (fsb, multiplier, voltage) can be set through Abit's Softmenu III Bios. Nice. Of course, as all good Overclockers know; heat is the greatest enemy of mankind (or at least Overclockers). Mega cooling solutions required (these can be purchased from Overclock.co.uk **shamless plug**). This is unfortunately where the KT7A falls short in some respects; still playing host to a row of capacitors next to the CPU socket. This leads to problems in fitting some coolers, such as the Orb range. Not a problem though - modifying the Orbs to fit is child's play, a mere 10 second mod (to the cooler). No excuse still - it would be nice to see those capacitors gone for good".
