Running WCPUID on my new MSI KT3Ultra2 MB (with PC-2700 DDR installed), I'm surprised to discover it identifies the Northbridge chipset as VIA KT266/A (not the supposed KT333) and a DDR bus speed of 266MHz.
A little more exploration using Sandra Pro illustrates nominal difference between my other (KT266/PC2100-equipped) system, and my new (KT333/PC2700-equipped) system. (This is also borne out in the standard benchmarks shipped with Sandra - check them out.)
Has MSI shipped supposedly-KT333 boards without the KT333 set? Has VIA shipped KT266 chipsets labeled as KT333?
What's up with this?
