 Thread : ALi sux! I need help!!!
 
More Information

Last year I got a new system w/ an ECS Motherboard with the Ali Magik chipset. My system also has an AthlonXP1900, Geforce 3 Ti500, 512 megs DDR ram, nothing OC'd. I get low benchmarks on 3dmark and I think it's because of the ALi chipset! I've seen a lot of reviews on how terrible ALi is, and I can't find their website or a tweak to fix my performance loss!!! Can anyone help?!?!!?

ALi is the worst chipset manufacturer ever. Do yourself a favour, change a mobo as no matter how you tweak, ALi just a stupid chipset that never learn.

Plug & Play? How about Plug & Pray!
