ABIT VH6 (VIA 694)

Anybody try this mobo except me? Anyone review this mobo?
Guess what, this mobo faster than Intel 815 chipset !!!!!
UNBELIEVEABLE
 
I recently installed the VH6 (after giving up on the ASUS CUSL2 not working with Win 2K). I'm running a P3 933 with 2 IBM 7200 drives and 256MB. I have a dual boot system with Win ME as the other OS. I find the board quite stable in both OSs. I use Win ME as a game OS, currently running Deus X (which doesn't run on Win 2K).

I tried setting CAS timing to 2 but that won't work. I use 4 way interleaving and cashing of the video card (32meg, Diamond Viper II Z200).

Can you recommend any other tweaks?
 
FASTER ??? vith via chipset? don't think so, maybe u have changed something.. i815 is about 50% faster in memory than all via chipsets..
 
815 memory performance is faster on Sisoft sandra but 3DMark 2000 it was around 4750 and with this VIA around 4950!!!
All with the same specs, and for sure I know what I am doing, I am hardware engineer at computer company.
I tried many mobo, only Abit VH6 is faster than 815, Soyo, Gigabyte, Asus, Msi with VIA is slower than 815.

Grayfox, You need good PC133 to run CAS 2 on this mobo, or get CAS 2 memory to make it easier.
