Microstar K7Pro AMD 750 Slot-A ATX

The Test

In recent times, choosing a motherboard cannot be completely determined by a Winstone score. Now, many boards come within one Winstone point of each other and therefore the need to benchmark boards against each other falls. Therefore you shouldn't base your decision entirely on the benchmarks you see here, but also on the technical features and advantages of this particular board, seeing as that will probably make the greatest difference in your overall experience.

If for some reason you're still looking for a motherboard based on the AMD 750 chipset, the K7Pro is an excellent choice. It's less expensive than most other AMD 750 boards, while stability, quality, and features are up there with the best of them. However, the KX133 chipset is now widely available and generally provides better performance without introducing any drawbacks. For now, we'll have to recommend that users looking for the best Athlon solution consider a KX133 board, but there's no doubt that K7Pro is a solid motherboard.
