Jungs, das Board ist ein Flop! Hatte mir auch deutlich mehr davon erwartet. Aber man möge z.B. mal hier schauen:
Considering this is an Abit board, and they're known for their overclocking features, the KV8 Pro is decidedly lacking in one major feature, a working AGP/PCI clock lock function. VIA recently showed off working AGP/PCI lock options on their K8T800 Pro reference boards, but Abit has not implemented this feature in their first shipping K8T800 Pro boards. Not having an AGP/PCI lock means that overclockability will be hampered, as raising the system's front side bus speed will also in turn raise the AGP and PCI clock speeds, which can be dangerous for system components. Abit runs their front side bus speed at a default of 204 MHz, up from the typical 204 MHz, to give their boards a slight performance edge. For the fairness of our benchmarks, we lowered this clock rate back down to an even 200 MHz.
| Außerdem (so steht's im Review) gibt es nicht wie bei nVidia die Möglichkeit den HTr-Multiplikator zu setzen. Von daher müßte man auf 250 MHz Refernztakt gehen, um die 4x 250 = 1000 MHz nutzen zu können. Und da kommt gleich wieder der Spaß mit dem AGP/PCI-Takt ...
Unfortunately, today's Athlon64 processors cannot take advantage of the one true major new feature of the K8T800 Pro yet, 1 GHz HyperTransport bus options. If Abit were to allow clock multiplier operation (most Athlon64 motherboards allow the CPU clock to be modified downwards, wherein bus speed can be adjusted upwards for higher performance), we could have seen what today's processors could do on a 1 GHz HyperTransport bus. Alas, Abit does not allow this, and users of today's Athlon64 processors will only be able to use their chips at AMD's intended 800 MHz HyperTransport speed. As you can see, there isn't much fun in that. When both platforms are running at 800 MHz HyperTransport speeds, there is basically zero performance difference between the new K8T800 Pro and the older K8T800. Both CPU and memory speeds are within a fraction of each other in these benchmarks.
| Von daher halte ich das Board für 'nen Schuß in den Ofen. Möglicherweise gibt's da noch eine neue Revision die das fixed. Aber ansonsten soll es mir auch egal sein -> Sockel 939 wartet ab 2. Juni.
