Believe it or not I have a brand new MSI motherboard socket 7 ATX style. I recenty tried two different cpu's in it and posted the board. I overclocked a Pentium 100, but I accidently fried a k6 450. The board did post with the k6 but I was not using enough cooling. Good bye cpu. This MSI board is unique in that it is ATX with usb ports although it does employ the 72 pin memory (4 banks) but it does have 1 168 pin slot for sdram. I want to complete the build but I'm waiting to come across a good cheap case for it. The ones I have are simply to nice to stick this board into. Hmmmmm maybe I'll try that wooden case idea.
