DFI LanParty VIA KT400a Review @ 3dXtreme

"Here is a close-up shot of the DFI LanParty KT400a. The layout of the board looks near perfect; as the IDE, Floppy, PSU and memory slots all look to be in the right spot. I used the very large Thermal Take Volcano 11 Xaser Edition heatsink/fan during this review, and this motherboard had no problems with installing a heatsink of that size; although the top capacitors were a little close."
A little close? More like "in your face you had better have small fingers or use the onboard mounting holes" close. Then again the Volcano 11+ does have a slightly different mounting clip compared to the Coolermaster Aero 7+

The board is very solid though and comes with a ton of features. Here is our review of the DFI LanParty KT400A for comparison purposes.
