Quake III Arena

In Quake III, there are three motherboards dominating the benchmark charts: Gigabyte's GA-7DXR, Abit's KG7 and the DFI AK76-SN. However, the difference between the fastest and the slowest board is less than 4%. It's interesting to see that the three boards we reviewed first are not able reach the performance of newer competitors. Gigabyte GA-7DX, Biostar M7MIA and Asus A7M266 are at the end of the test bed.

These results are quite similar to those from Quake III, proving that they reflect the actual rating of the candidates. Abit and Gigabyte 7DXR are in front, DFI, FIC and Asus follow and Biostar and the Gigabyte 7DX are on the tail.
