Conclusion: I feel that the SY-7VCA is a very solid contender in the market
of main boards for Intel processors. This could very well be the best board
available for socketed processors. It has plenty of feature and expansion possibility,
efficient layout on the PCB, and the memory performance is improving with every
BIOS release. I bought one to put in a friends box and would put one in mine.
With Intel’s plans to make future processors all socketed I think the SY-7VCA
is the best main board to purchase for today as well as tomorrow.
