Men, it is true that this motherboard can slowdown the system. I have a p3-500 and a tnt2 Ultra, and I ma having 44fps in quake3 in high, and 2400points in 3dmark2K. So please, if someone know anything about it???


Thanks
 
not sure about the motherboard or the scores, but the duron650 is faster for almost anything im prety sure.
 
ugh 3dmark 2000 is pretty video card dependent. you only have a tnt2 what do you expect? if others are getting higher scores try flashing the the bios. older rev of the bios had sucky mem scores.
 
In a word, yes. This board uses the Via Apollo Pro 133 chipset. Via polished it up &
released the 133A chipset and it still couldn't compete with a BX so you know the original
must be a dog. I do own this board and only use it for my son's system. I also wouldn't recommend ever trying it with Win2k as you cannot install any drivers. I've even got the latest BIOS but still won't work with Win2k.
