Interesting enough we were able "once" to get the search engine from ASUS Taiwan's Main Page to provide us with some links to product information for the ASUS K7M. It was strange that the only way I could get to the K7M's product information was through ASUS's search engine. The K7M product information pages are made but not linked to off the Main products area. Unfortunately using the search engine no longer provides access to the links. I've included the links that I was so lucky to capture before they removed them from their search. I'm not sure how long these links will be accessible so please don't email me or our webmaster if they no longer work. ASUS K7M Product Links: [url]http://www.asuscom.de/Products/Motherboard/Slot%20A/k7m[/url] the chipset feature lists that the K7M uses the i810e which is obviously incorrect[break]Mwuhaha, dit is absoluut geen reclame voor AMD, als ze het per ongeluk als brak i810 bord aanprijzen... de link bestaat inmiddels niet meer. Verder schrijft Tom niet alleen over de reclame ervoor, maar heeft hij dit als onderdeel van een complete Athlon moederborden review neergeplant. Er staan veel benchmarks in. Hier een stukkie uit de conclusie:[/break] Each of these motherboards provides performance relatively close to one another under Windows 98. Making a decision based on performance is negligible. However, using Windows NT, the performance benefits between some of the boards varied more than I expected. Both the FIC SD11 and ASUS K7M clearly outperformed the others under NT. Another interesting thing to point out is the performance delta between the shipping boards vs. AMD's Fester motherboard. It is apparent that the publicly available motherboards are using very conservative settings in their BIOS. Hopefully each of these motherboard manufacturers will go back through their BIOS and try and squeeze as much performance as their design will allow them. I'm excited to see that a couple more manufactures have decided to support the Athlon effort. It's still quite puzzling to me why some of these companies aren't promoting their Athlon products. In ASUS's case, they quietly designed a motherboard without their name anywhere on the product nor have any information on their website about it. If you are going to build and ship a product, it only makes sense to promote it!
