Soyo 6VCA Motherboard Review - PCSTATS
Soyo 6VCA is a good board because of the support in VIA133A products with Bios upgrades that allow for faster memory scores... but see for yourself!

Final results

Although my goal was to have 1Ghz, 966Mhz is still considered to be a successful overclock (138Mhz FSB.)  I am extremely happy with the ease of overclocking with this motherboard.  The level of stability is equally impressive, as I've been running at 966Mhz (with 138 + 33Mhz memory) for a few days now.

Conclusion:

I can highly recommend this motherboard to anyone looking for a fast, tweakable, and reliable motherboard for their computing (and overclocking needs.)  While there are some obvious gripes with this motherboard, such as the inclusion of the AMR slot, and having only one 3-pin fan connector for CPU fans. Additionally having a mere three DIMM sockets, onboard sound, and archaic jumpers for Vcore adjustments would annoy many of you out there.

Despite these "many" gripes, I still find them to be relatively minor on the whole, and more of a set of imperfections than design flaws.  After all, this motherboard is fast, stable, and tweakable.  The price is reasonable, and the included software is appropriate and useful.

Regarding all of the virtues and features of this motherboard, I have no reason to swap this motherboard for another one anytime soon.  And that is a very brave statement coming from a hardware junkie like me.
