The Test
There are two contenders that we would have really liked to include in this review but couldn’t. The new ALi MAGiK1 B0-stepping chipset is performing quite well (although not as well as the KT266A) but Iwill was unable to provide us with a sample board in time for this review. NVIDIA’s nForce is also ready for action but NVIDIA isn’t quite prepared to let us publish benchmarks yet, it won’t be much longer for that one either.
