VIA K8T890 Series Chipsets Review
|
Posted on Friday, September 24 2004 @ 17:01:52 CEST by LSDsmurf |
When AMD's Athlon 64 was initially introduced, all of the major players in the core logic chipset business immediately jumped on board, and introduced, or released, full-featured chipsets for the new processor. And although SiS, ALi, VIA and NVIDIA all had similar Athlon 64 chipsets on their respective road maps, it was VIA and NVIDIA who ended up truly dominating the segment. VIA's K8T800 and NVIDIA nForce 3 150 Pro locked horns back then, and the battle has raged on ever since. NVIDIA and VIA essentially fought to a draw on the Socket 754 platform, with each chipset garnering its share of fans, but on the Socket 940 platform the K8T800 was declared the "best" choice, namely because of the excellent support VIA got from Asus in the SK8V. The SK8V was a top notch motherboard powered by the K8T800, that won numerous editor's choice awards from top technology publications the world over.
