    It's pretty much the same as the kt7a-raid. I'd buy whichever comes with dips (both have bios oc). The kt7a(non-raid) will cost less and would be a better deal if you aren't planning on a raid setup.

    the kt7a does not have dips only the asus does. there is no reason for dips anymore they just confuse people. Abits soft menu 3 is the ultimate for overclocking. You will find you will be able to fine tune you ram with abit allot better also.

    Good choice, the abit and asus are neck in neck, one board beets the other on some things and one on otherthings but to me I have always prefered Abit, they update their bios more frequantly also. Im curious to know why they did not put the abit in there with those tests.
