24 Board Intel 865/875P Roundup

Published by

Toms Hardware Guide have posted their 24 Board Intel 865/875P Roundup! Here's a snip.

In the next few months, two chipsets will set the pace for the Intel P4 platform, namely the 875P as the top model and the somewhat cheaper 865 with its derivatives. It is also apparent that the Grantsdale chipset, which is not due to be released until mid 2004, will expand the current generation. The two modules are therefore designed to last a long time and are ideal as upgrades or for OEM use.

The current favorite is "Dual-DDR400," and motherboard buyers are basing their purchase decision on criteria such as "FSB800" or "HT-Support." As far as the ambitious user is concerned, selecting the perfect motherboard is anything but a trivial pastime - never before have customers been able to choose from such a wide range of products. Another plus is the extremely long list of features, previously unheard of for motherboards, thus making the purchase of additional components superfluous for the time being. This comes as a result of higher integration.
