VIA In Shape: 6 Motherboards using the renewed KT133A Chipset

SPECviewperf 6.1.2: Advanced Visualizer

It looks like the Asus board is best suited for the Visualizer, as it scores the best result. ABit's KT7A is definitely not able to repeat the excellent result in Quake III. DFI and Soltek are a bit behind this time.

Design Review does not reveal any major performance differences between our six candidates. Again the fastest board is the Asus A7V133.
