Review @ AnandTechIf your goal is top-notch Athlon performance, you should not be looking at the ASUS A7V600 or any KT600 board that we have tested. However, if you are looking for a solid and reliable Athlon board with the latest features, then the ASUS A7V600 should definitely be on your shopping list. There is no doubt that the KT600 boards, in general, and the ASUS A7V600, in particular, bring great value to the mix.
Boards based on the single-channel nForce2 400 chipset cost about the same and perform much better than the KT600. Our concern with the nForce2 400, however, is that it is only available from a few manufacturers. It is also stripped of features when compared to most KT600 boards. Perhaps this is where the KT600 scores a win, because the feature set of the KT600 is even better and more contemporary than the top-of-the-line nForce2 Ultra 400 boards that we have evaluated.
