KT600 will be the next big Athlon chipset

 


We checked the Hard Boys review of the latest Via KT600 chipset and it made us reel in shock'n'awe.
We're surprised and shocked to see the first benchmarks of a reference board based on the KT600 chipset.

In most tests, apart from purely graphics, the KT600 outscored the new Nforce 2 400 Ultra a sea-change from the performance of the KT400A, we must say.

Boards based on this chipset should arrive in retail as soon as June, so in the next 10 days or so and are much cheaper than Nforce 2 Ultra.

The Via chipset not only costs less than Nvidia's, but also use less components, which helps bring the BOM (bill of materials) price right down.
