The tests and methods we employ are generally publicly available and reproducible. If you have questions about our methods, hit our forums to talk with us about them. Because the Athlon 64 processor has its memory controller built in, performance differences between A64 chipsets are potentially very small, especially when those chipsets are implemented well.

As I said, any memory performance differences are likely the result of motherboard or BIOS variations, because the chipset has little to do with memory access on the Athlon See a trend yet? The trend holds solid throughout our gaming benchmarks, but the performance differences are so minor, you may not have noticed.

There are two goals with Sphinx. The first is to run it faster than real time, so real-time speech recognition is possible. The second, more ambitious goal is to run it at about 0. The exact command-line options we used were:. Perhaps viewperf can show us more of the same…. The VIA chipsets spice things up a little with a relatively strong showing in viewperf. Perhaps if we had a pro wrestling announcer doing play-by-play for us, these margins of victory would be more exciting.

However, Tim has sought to keep ScienceMark independent by diversifying the development team and by publishing much of the source code for the benchmarks at the ScienceMark website.

We are sufficiently satisfied with his efforts, and impressed with the enhancements to the 2. Scientists believe that members of the camel family lived in North America at least 40 million years ago. Before the Ice Age, camels had developed into a distinct species and had moved westward across Alaska to western Asia. In Asia, two groups separated and gradually became the two chief kinds of camels known today.

Meanwhile, smaller members of the camel family had moved southward from North to South America. Today, four members of the camel family live in South America: 1 alpacas, 2 guanacos, 3 llamas, and 4 vicunas. By the time Europeans went to North America, no members of the camel family had lived there for many thousands of years. No one knows why they disappeared. For lower-end mobos, the K8T Pro will go head to head with the nForce3 , a cheaper version of nForce3 that lacks GigE networking.

Against the nForce , the K8T Pro should hold its own just fine. For higher end enthusiast boards, the K8T Pro will face a stiffer challenge against the nForce3 Gb. VIA could recapture the initiative by pulling its Envy24 audio technology into a new south bridge along with GigE, instantly giving its chipsets an edge over the Soundstorm-deprived nForce3. We should be getting our hands on a production K8T Pro motherboard soon, and sweet, egregious abuse of an Athlon 64 processor will ensue.

Stay tuned. Oh well, another reason to hate them I guess. You know, the sad thing is that I was all ready to comment about how in the UT benchmark both Via boards got the same score, yet the top one is pixels further to the right. Does anyone else just scroll through these reviews when you see benches that are all pretty much the same, maybe one bar is 1 mm longer than the other, maybe of six bars one is 2 mm longer. I dunno, there seems like there might be something more exciting out there.

So when will VIA release the southbridge as shown in the diagram, but presumably not used on this board? Type search above and then hit Enter.

A block diagram of the K8T Pro chipset. Source: VIA. Test notes We were able to spend a little bit of quality time with a K8T Pro reference board, and we have a quick set of benchmarks for you.

Unreal Tournament Comanche 4. Sphinx speech recognition Ricky Houghton first brought us the Sphinx benchmark through his association with speech recognition efforts at Carnegie Mellon University. Sphinx is a high-quality speech recognition routine that needs the latest computer hardware to run at speeds close to real-time processing.

Our testing techniques were very similar to those described in this article by Greg Hess. This revision of Cinebench measures performance in a number of ways, including 3D rendering, software shading, and OpenGL shading with and without hardware acceleration. SPECviewperf workstation graphics SPECviewperf simulates the graphics loads generated by various professional design, modeling, and engineering applications.

This image analysis and processing tool is partially multithreaded, and it shows us the results of a number of simple image manipulation calculations. All three chipsets were pretty evenly matched. Overclocking exploits will probably best be performed on a production motherboard, anyhow. Didn't want to upgrade my XT just yet. Over clocks like a champ. For what's left of the AGP boards out there, this one is not bad.

Cons: Sound sucks. I did here stories about the sound quality on this board and was a little worried before I got it, but it is a rare occasion when it give me the static. That's the only reason I didn't give this board 5 eggs. Cons: Not an nForce chipset. Wish someone made an nForce with the same features as this.. RAM slots positioned that I can't install a removable HD bay with my case basically a standard run of the mill case , and larger CD drives may not fit in the third 5.

And it searched through the cd and started updateing,It restarted when it was finished only to leave me with a Death screen of Fatal Error System Halted And that the cpu was unrecognized. Basically a Dead PC. Did that and it didn't read it,Went and got it on a CD!!! And finally it worked. Fix Updates b4 selli. Hope I helped a customer not go through hell.. Pros: Worked right out of the box, AGP with a socket, decent overclocking options.

Overall Review: My first build, wanted a new er socket board and didn't want to get rid of the AGP card yet, so this was perfect. Would have been nice to have some round IDE cables though. Pros: Nice board layout, seems very stable once you get it fully configured I took out one DIMM, and it appeared to be working fine I haven't tried to overclock yet, and I may not at all since my system is already 2x faster than my old Athlon XP build.
