Best Cheap Dual money can buy!

Written: Jul 28 '01

Product Rating: Product Rating: 5.0
Pros: Great Board... Rock-solid Stable, TONS of features, and a POWERHOUSE!!!

Cons: LX Chipset limits you to two 333MHz with SMP I out bench a Duron 850

The Bottom Line: Have an old 66MHz PII to use? Then get this board!
mad_cat's Full Review: Asus P2L97
I have this setup with two 333MHz (clocked at 375) 384MB of PC133, ATI Radeon 64MB DDR, TWO IDE 8.4GB Drives, TWO 7200 60GB Drives, SCSI DVD, and a 4x8 SCSI CDR. I love the SMP performance. UP 24-7 as a file sever + I use it as my personal PC! HD's transfer through the Network GigaBytes of files daily. Oh, and the USB controller onboard works just fine. Setup is easy, great BIOS with lots of features, support for up to 512MB of RAM, and onbaord 2940UW SCSI! How can you go wrong with this baord! I have run every 9X OS, NT4, Win2k, XP Beta, Linux, and BeOS. The only problem you may have is finding matching CPU's. Mine aren't matching, but SMP still works fine.
