Albatron's board is just a hair ahead of the AT7 MAX in 3DMark2001 SE

Quake III Arena

The trend continues in Quake III Arena.

Serious Sam SE

Serious Sam SE rounds out our gaming benchmarks, and really there's no reason to do any more. Again, Albatron's KX400+ Pro is right there with Abit's AT7 MAX.

IDE performance

In WinBench 99's Disk WinMark Business test, the KX400+ Pro scores better than the AT7 MAX, but not by much at all.

The Abit and Albatron boards swap places in the High-End Disk WinMark test, and this time it's the KX400+ Pro just trailing the AT7 MAX. Overall, the performance of the two boards' ATA implementations is quite similar, at least with an ATA/100 hard drive.
