Six nForce2 Ultra 400 Motherboards Reviewed

Digit Life lines up six nForce2 Ultra 400 based boards for a mini-roundup: a Gigabyte 7NNXP, EPoX 8RDA3+, DFI LANParty NFII Ultra, Biostar M7NCD Pro, ASUS A7N8X Deluxe rev 2.0 and last, but by no means least - not if the benchmarks are anything to go by - an Acorp 7NFU400. Here’s a snip:

In most tests the boards work equally fast. On the other hand, “fine aesthetes” can choose the fastest product and even feel its suprimacy by running the WinRAR or 7-Zip :). As to the other parameters, I’m glad to see such a wide range of various solutions: here you can find a fully armed board from Gigabyte, an overclockable model from EPoX with the proprietary POST codes indicator, and DFI’s pretentious LANParty though it’s still pretty plain. Acorp’s boards which used to be a symbol of the low-end market become faster. ASUS offers the Serial ATA support in addition to the brillinat performance… Who else? Biostar? This is probably the only board without any distinguishing features. On the other hand, Biostar always had an image of a manufacturer of inexpensive but reliable boards. Well, the choice is wide, and it’s for you to decide what features are more important.
