Mike Andrawes van AnandTech heeft vandaag zijn review online gemikt van de Iwill KK266, een KT133A plankje met 6xPCI, 1xAGP, 1xISA en 3xDIMM. Op het gebied van overclock features is de KK266 erg sterk, hij ondersteunt multiplier settings van 5.0 tot 12.5 in stappen van 0.5, FSB speeds van 100MHz - 166Mhz (stappen van 1MHz) en uitgebreide CPU en I/O voltage tweaking. Dit alles kun je ook nog eens comfortabel vanuit het BIOS bedienen. In de praktijk bleek het bord, samen met Mushkin High Performance Rev. 3 op CAS 3 maximaal op 161MHz te kunnen draaien.
Concluderend schrijft Mike dat dit de beste KT133A bord van het moment is. Hij combineert de snelheid en stabiliteit van de Asus A7V133 met de layout en features van de Abit KT7A. Hij krijgt dan ook een vette 9 als eindcijfer:
They always say that hard work pays off and Iwill's KK266 is proof. They've climbed all the way to the top of the pack and shown the world that they are able to produce a motherboard that can satisfy all hardware enthusiasts. There is no doubt that the KK266 is a very impressive KT133A motherboard, even when compared to the other impressive candidates we have looked at so far.
The Iwill, however, simply takes the best of all. It has the clean layout of the ABIT KT7A-RAID, but with the excellent performance and stability figures from the ASUS A7V133. It includes all the necessary overclocking and tweaking options inside the BIOS to make overclocking an ease of job for most people. The inclusion of an ISA slot will definitely help those of you hanging on to that last ISA card.
Nothing is perfect, however. We'd like to see Iwill tweak the BIOS in order to regain the 2% deficit in the Content Creation Winstone 2000 tests. Further, if Iwill would change their mind and start including the USB cable, the KK266 would be an even better value.
On the other hand Iwill doesn't let the quality degrade in any way. The KK266 is one of the best built motherboards we have looked at, and the choice of a highly regarded RAID controller shows Iwill's desire to make the best product possible. Don't forget that the KK266 also has a very attractive price tag on it as well, making it an excellent overall value.

Thanks Yiry voor de link.
. Ik heb nu ASUS, maar dat hoeft wat mij betreft echt niet zo te blijven, hoor!
