One this is for sure, the Biostar M7MIA is not the board for overclockers, although it does perform decently with good stability.
The M7MIA does have a few FSB settings in the BIOS, although a jumper on the board controls the 100 / 133MHz FSB range. Other than that, the board does not have any sort of voltage or multiplier settings. Interestingly enough, the board does not have any temperature readings in the BIOS.
The most unique feature of the board is the presence of an ISA slot, the only board here with such a feature, useful only if you still have an ISA peripheral laying around that you really need.
The M7MIA still retains an ISA slot.
The performance of the board is decent, making the board a nice option for those not into overclocking.
