Evan Lieb at AnandTech.com has thrown up his 20-way 865PE/875P Motherboard Shootout! Here's a snip.
Even after finishing our 5-way memory compatibility comparison that tested seventeen different Pentium 4 motherboards we still had lots of work ahead of us. Today we bring you the first part of a two-part 865PE/875P roundup series. Part 1 includes twenty different 865PE and 875P motherboards while Part 2 will include another thirteen to fifteen P4 motherboards. We will announce the runner-ups in Part 2. Usually we don?t do 20-way motherboard roundups because they would take up an enormous amount of space if they were to follow our normal motherboard format, where five pages of information are dedicated to each motherboard and an entire benchmark suite is run. So to write a 20-way motherboard roundup we were forced to condense all the important 865PE/875P motherboard information we had into charts and graphs so that you, our readers, won't have to peruse 100+ pages to find the motherboard you?re looking for. This is why we?re breaking up our 865PE/875P coverage into separate roundups. Don?t worry though, we?ve managed to kept all the important data for this roundup that you normally read about in our individual motherboard reviews.
