The Albatron
P4X845EPro is a mighty fast motherboard that is for sure! When teamed up with a
fast processor and videocard there isn't anything the P4X845EPro can't handle,
just look at the benchmarks. To make things better, P4X845EPro is one of the
most well equipped P4 boards out there it has everything you would need,
Ultra/133 IDE RAID, 10/100 LAN, USB 2.0 and even 5.1 audio there isn't much more
you could ask for. If you do happen to find something you're missing the
P4X845EPro is an extremely upgradeable motherboard with a 4x AGP slot and six
32-bit PCI's.
Stability of the motherboard was excellent we
didn't have one single crash unless it was due to user error. The Phoenix bios
that the P4X845EPro uses is just as feature rich as the actual hardware on the
PCB! Tweakers/overclockers will surely love this board since it gives
you full control over anything you would ever want to adjust. We really liked
the fact that there is no voltage mod needed to run a Northwood processor at
1.85V.
About the only thing I have to complain about is
the placement of the onboard IDE RAID's connectors. With them perpendicular to
the DIMM slots even longer PCI cards (such as the SB Audigy) will have a hard
time fitting in PCI slots 3-5 and the IDE cable will have to wrap around the
other peripherals.
Overall the Albatron P4X845EPro is a great
motherboard and anyone who uses it will enjoy it's blistering
performance!
