APPRO 1124S - 1U, CCSI RC0103 - 1U, Elite PC 2U and more, it's a great job of 25 pages from someone who knows the baby well: "The Athlon MP is as viable of a solution as it was when we first made the switch. We've been running Athlon CPUs as servers ever since the Thunderbird core was released and the platform has given us nothing to complain". The full review is here and our MP 2000 Special page here ======================================= 09/05/02 - Four Athlon motherboards for DDR400 THG has a DDR400 motherboard roundup and the introduction text is more than tempting: "AMD is back! Thanks to the Athlon XP 2600+, the chip manufacturer is now able to catch up with the fastest Pentium 4 systems over 2.5 GHz. Equally important, however, is a fast platform. VIA's new KT400 chipset promises more performance because it supports DDR400 memory. We put the first four motherboards through intensive testing - and the results are astonishing".

The whole report is baseless and call for one simple conclusion "shun Gartner for ever!". Try to read here ======================================= 09/05/02 - AMD's new Indian window of opportunity "For more than a decade Advanced Micro Devices Inc. competed with little success against dominant rival Intel Corp. in India's processor market. AMD was shut out largely by a government mandate that specified an Intel architecture for systems bought by India's various federal and state government agencies. Now that obstacle has been removed." EETime - SS - Geek the inquirer - ebnews ======================================= 09/05/02 - Asus A7V8X KT400 motherboard review The A7V8X is probably the hottest motherboard in town and GamePC has a good look on it with some flattering comments: "The onboard connectivity options on the A7V8X are simply top of the line. Gigabit Ethernet, Serial ATA, Firewire, USB 2.0, & 6-Channel hardware audio with S/PDIF out is a fairly impressive roster of onboard features".

Read here and also here ======================================= 09/05/02 - MSI KT4 Ultra with KT400 reviewed Looks like guys at AMD 3D are very happy with this early KT400 mainboard and that's why they gave the highly recommendation with a 90% rate: "You get USB 2.0, Firewire, a Gigabit NIC, Bluetooth, 6 Channel Audio, Serial ATA. All these options will save you quite a bit of cash if you are building your system from scratch". It's here and our KT4 special page here ======================================= Older news here |
