Let's make a chipset competition on our MSI-mainboards!

[toXicbluE]

I guess, lots of us here have unlocked CPU's so we could compare the performance of the different boards/chipsets at the same conditions. [img]tongue.gif[/img]

So i suggest the following, as not everybody has the fastest CPU:

1. set the CPU-speed first to 11 x 133mhz (1466mhz) and later to 9 x 166mhz (1500mhz)
2. use timings ULTRA/2.5/5/3/3 - yes, they are slow, but this way everybody could take part 8 and we just want comparison, not maximum!)
3. use Windows XP ( we need the same platform ).
4. run SuperPI ( 1M ), Sandra 2003 benches ( CPU/Multimedia/Memory/Cashe ) and AIDA32 ( you'll find it, just search at google )

Post your results here and we will have the best chipset-comparison ( SiS745/KT333/KT400 )and we won't need to trust into strange reviews! [img]smile.gif[/img]

Post this way:

*@133mhz*
SuperPi :
Sandra CPU:
Sandra MM:
Sandra MEM:
Sandra Cashe:

Some people will say again, that this is not reallive performance: but we all have different Vidcards, so this comparison would be difficult.
And SuperPi is a good bench, it will show the truth.
I'll make my benches now, and post soon- i hope you all do the same :D

My only question is the 1t command...should we use it or not.

[toXicbluE]

no, don't use it, this is something not everybody would be able to do [img]smile.gif[/img]

Jo people where are those benches so we can compare the different mobo's

[groovetek]

can i join in when I get my nforce 2 mobo, even though it's epox? I was a big part of MSI!

I'm a little busy right now...you know its year end right now. Gotta do my books to see what I owe the government.

I will try to post in a day or so.

Sorry, never had to unlock my xp1600 on my 745u. Booted to 166 X 10.5 at default voltage.
