High End Workstation Performance - SPEC Viewperf 7.0
The latest version of SPEC Viewperf proves to be an excellent stress test for memory bandwidth and overall platform performance as you're about to see. The benchmarks included version 7 of the benchmark suite are:
3ds
max (3dsmax-01)
Unigraphics (ugs-01)
Pro/Engineer (proe-01)
DesignReview (drv-08)
Data Explorer (dx-07)
Lightscape (light-05)
For more information on the tests run visit SPEC's page on the new Viewperf benchmark.

What about stability? Does it perform better than Nforce2 400? same as KT400A does compared to Nforce2?Anonymous User - Saturday, July 19, 2003 - link
What about ECC memory support. A mobo that offers RAID w/o ECC is useless!.bh.Anonymous User - Friday, July 18, 2003 - link
You complain about the AGP/PCI bus being out of spec. It's a whole 2.5/pci and 5 mhz AGP out of spec. I don't know of any hardware that would have a problem at those speeds. You either ran out of headroom with the chip or the board just won't go past 215-220 or so. Hopefully you'll find out with other KT600 test boards.Anonymous User - Saturday, July 12, 2003 - link
It's just strange because right after he says he still highly recommends the board, he goes on to suggest that people buy an Nforce2 board if they can afford it. I don't know why he would highly recommend a board with "mediocre" performance.Anonymous User - Saturday, July 12, 2003 - link
I don't see why this board is still "highly recommended" after all the negative comments regarding the board.Anonymous User - Thursday, July 10, 2003 - link
Guess some few points were missing in the review: Performance of integrated LAN, IDE and Audio. Remember that nForce2 has a very low CPU utilization in all these three groups. Also the comparison of Audio DSP, 3D sound, ... were missing.Anonymous User - Tuesday, July 8, 2003 - link
including the older kt400 series results would be nice...Zuni - Sunday, July 6, 2003 - link
Almost every large website worldwide uses flash. Nba.com, cnet.com,zdnet.com etc almost every ad these days is in flash. Most of the larger sites use flash for navigation and other fancy effects. We're just using it for graphing :)Zuni - Sunday, July 6, 2003 - link
Err smaller in size :)Zuni - Sunday, July 6, 2003 - link
The reason they are in flash is bandwidth, they are over 50% small in size. We hear your feedback though.
