New Update

This P4 board is meant for price-sensitive home and office users. It is based on the Via P4M266 Chipset. It takes both SDRAM (Max 1 GB) and faster DDR-RAM 200/266 (max 2 GB). It has a basic set of features with on board AC’97 Digital Audio sound, on board AGP with 8 to 32 MB shared memory and a 4x AGP slot. It also has an IR connector to connect Infrared devices and support for UltraATA133. We tested it with the same configuration as with the Gigabyte.

Though its performance wasn’t as good as the Gigabyte, it’s good for normal usage. The best part is its price.
