BXBoards heeft een review gepost van de vroege Abit SE6 sample die zij in handen wisten te krijgen. Dit nieuwe plankje met de binnenkort te introduceren i815 chipset heeft een redelijk relaxte layout met 6 PCI sleufjes en 3 DIMM slots. Verder is het bord in goede Abit traditie weer van de nodige overclocking settings voorzien. Wat betreft performance brengt de review helaas minder positief nieuws over de SE6 en de i815 chipset. De geheugen performance blijkt extreem triest te zijn, in vergelijking met de goede oude 440BX soms meer dan de helft lager .
*Update* BXBoards heeft nieuwe benchmark resultaten toegevoegd met de In Order Depth Queue setting op 4. Hierdoor ziet de memory performance er aanmerkelijk vrolijker uit:
This is a disappointing product through no fault at all of Abit. The Solano chipset has been generating a lot of interest and for those of you waiting for an Intel based upgrade path from BX, then I'm afraid to report that the performance of i815 is not even in the same ball park. I must state again that this review is based on an early board, with an Intel "Secret" chipset. However although I expect late changes to the SouthBridge of Solano, I can't see any massive increases in performance at this late stage.
Abit have held up their end of the bargain, with all the support for the overclocked you'd expect. The product is commendably stable, and we took our P3-866 up to 1 Gigahertz with ease, something we've not managed to do on many boards. Its a great overclocking board, with all the overclocked stability expected of Abit.
