Comprehensive VIA motherboard roundup June 2000

Benchmarks: Windows NT 4.0 SP6

The fastest board for Windows NT does not come from Asus, but from Gigabyte. The 6VX7-4X is also available with three 1394 Firewire ports (6VX7-1394), but this version turned out to be slightly slower. Asus' CUV4X only gets average benchmark results this time - that's not what we are used from Asus. After fixing the stability issues with the KA11, the FIC board became very stable, but a bit slower.
