Gaming Performance
From the above graph of Quake III scores, we can see that the difference between the fastest and slowest board is about 7%, a relatively small gap, but one that's larger than the one we found in our November 2000 KT133 motherboard roundup. This is probably due to the fact that some manufacturers haven't tweaked the KT133A chipset to the fullest or maybe even the fact that some manufacturers redesigned their PCB's while others reused KT133 designs.
Business Performance - Content Creation
When dealing with office applications, we once again see a 7% differential
between the fastest and slowest boards.
Business Performance - SYSMark 2000
With SYSMark 2000, the gap between the boards is down to 3%, probably because SYSMark 2000 is not as stressful as Content Creation Winstone 2000. Interestingly enough, the Soyo K7VTA Pro, which was one of the slowest in Content Creation Winstone 2000, jumped to second in SYSMark 2000. On the other hand, Soltek scores the worst in both business benchmark suites.
