Gigabyte GA-8GPNXP Duo 915P Motherboard Review
|
Posted on Saturday, October 16 2004 @ 17:57:01 CEST by LSDsmurf |
When Intel introduced the i865PE last year, little was the company aware that it would later become a victim of that chipsets success. Targeted towards the mainstream market, the i865PE offered a lot of a value, was less expensive than the i875P, and performed like a champ. Soon after its release the major Taiwanese motherboard manufacturers discovered how to turn the i865PE's 'PAT' on, a feature that was supposedly exclusive to the i875P. This put Intel in a difficult situation. With i865PE and PAT enabled, there was really no reason to spend the extra money for an i875P equipped motherboard since performance was identical.
