Just got word that Digit-life's Dmitry Mayorov has posted his SiS655- R658 chipsets review! Here's a snip.
Silicon Integrated Systems (SiS), earlier known as a manufacturer of successful (and not very) low-end solutions for consumer desktops, decided on developing chipsets with the characteristics corresponding to the high-end level. Isn't it better to make products competing against high-end chipsets rather than being a leader on the small-profit market? Today we will examine two SiS chipsets developed for the niche traditionally occupied by Intel, the niche of high-performance systems characteristics and performance of which are much more important than price tags.
The SiS655 with dual-channel DDR400 controller, and SiS R658 - the first x86 chipset ever supporting Rambus DRAM not from Intel will be closely examined.
