<Where the kt133a shows some modest benefit over the kt133, though the big win will probably be for overclockers.>

True. The bigger winners are AMD stockholders. Assuming VIA's claims about KT133A working with the exisitng KT133 motherboards is true, we should now see a rapid adoption of 133FSB and faster speed grades from AMD.

AMD price cuts make a lot more sense in the context of this chipset moving to production. I wouldn't be surprised to see Q1 Athlon line-up being primarily based on 133MHzFSB and starting at 1G.
