IWILL XP333-R

[Guest]

I'm considering migrating from a PIII800EB to an Athlon XP1900. Anyone have any experience with this board and the ALI MAGIK1(C VERSION) chipset? Any other recommendations?

Thanks

The MAGiK 1 is one of the most stable chipsets in the industry. It originally got a bad reputation as slow because it's memory performance was not on par with AMD's 760 (to the tune of a whopping 5%). But the "B" revision addressed that concern to some degree, and the "C" revision is supposed to be the best yet. Unfortunately too many people have come to accept the problems VIA has given them over the years as part of PC ownership, and continue to ignore this great chipset.

What's the frequency, Kenneth?
