Any body know which board is faster at 400MHz of higher FSB?
KT333/400 or nForce 2?
Well... Normaly nForce 2 is faster at 333MHz FSB... yeah right..
How about 400MHz FSB sync mode...?
The reason why I'm asking this stupid question is....
At 400MHz FSB, PCI is running 33MHz and AGP is 66MHz.. I mean nForce 2 system..
nForce 2 has locked PCI AGP clock..
But, VIA platform is different... KT333/400 has divider which is 1/5 at 400MHz..
So.. PCI is running at 40MHz and AGP frequency is 80MHz. This cause some instablility problem..
However, many components are working at 80MHz AGP/40MHz PCI.. So... running 400MHz FSB at VIA KT333/400 Platfporm means u r overclocking whole system.
nForce2... you are only overclocking FSB and Memory bus...
I've never seen any review or article about this.
KT266A @ 333MHz is faster than KT333 @ 333MHz... I've read this comparison before... but not nForce2 vs KT333/400 @ 400MHz or higher...
If KT333/400 is faster or same @ 400MHz FSB, there is no way to envy nForce 2 owner, right?
