Opa schrijft dat LostCircuits een review in elkaar getimeerd heeft van de Microstar K7 Pro Slot-A moederplank:
"Deze heeft het BIJNA allemaal. Geen AMR (geen discussie graag), nog wel 1 ISA, een heleboel FSB settings, de MSI monitor LEDjes en zes x PCI. Enige wat ontbreekt is een vierde DIMM slot en er is geen Super Bypass in het BIOS. LET OP: Ga niet voor de Retail maar voor de OEM versie. De Retail kan alleen op 100, 120 en 133MHz FSB lopen!!"
Dat laatste is vrij raar, de OEM versie heeft namelijk een FSB die van 100 tot 125MHz in stappen van 1MHz kan worden ingesteld.
Whoever thought that SlotA boards would become boring is taught better by the MSI MS 6195 a.k.a. K7 Pro. The board is extremely temperamental and versatile and allows running stable at bus speed settings that have not yet been achieved by other boards. The 1 MHz increments are a no-nonsense feature and allow the user to systematically twain out the limitations of the CPU. This is supported by the possibility to adjust the core voltage from within the BIOS. All in all, the board is extremely fast and fun to work with.There is one major sore spot on the K7 Pro. Unfortunately there are two versions in circulation, namely the OEM and the retail version. Apart from the difference in the shipping box, the two versions also differ in terms of the hardware configuration. In real life, that means that the OEM Version is equipped with the ICS 9248 BF-110 clock generator which allows, similar to the ASUS K7M, the above described 1 increment settings of the FSB. The retail version, however, sports the ICS9248xx-64 clock generator which lacks this capability and only offers 100, 120 and 133 MHz FSB settings. This does not impinge on the speed of the board itself, however, it takes away the possibility for overclocking, i.e. the fun part which, after all, is the main argument for either the ASUS K7M or the MSI K7 Pro.
