Tests used OCZ PC3200 Platinum Rev. 2, which uses Samsung TCCD chips. All memory ran at 2-2-2-7 timing in all benchmarks.
The NVIDIA 6800 Ultra was used for testing both PCIe and AGP performance on the ULi board. The 6800 Ultra video cards were tested at the same video timings and differed only in interface - AGP or PCIe. Resolution in all benchmarks is 1280x1024x32 unless otherwise noted.
All single and dual GPU benchmarks were run with a matched pair of NVIDIA 6800 Ultra reference cards, identified as Rev. A04. All game benchmarks, both single video and SLI, were run in 1600x1200 video mode with 4X Anti-Aliasing and 8X Anisotropic filtering enabled. The exception is Aquamark 3, which uses a standardized 1024x768 setup to generate comparable benchmark results.
Results for the Jetway 939GT4-SLI are color-coded in red in all graphs. Results for the other boards are in blue.

I've had better luck with Jetway than with PC Chips motherboards, but haven't used either in a long time. This one sounds very interesting.shady06 - Wednesday, August 24, 2005 - link
wow, wasnt expecting jetway to come along and run with DFI...Bozo Galora - Wednesday, August 24, 2005 - link
Well, the question is - can we GET a bios that will do the the higher MSB's???Or is it just on your wish list.
If such bios is offered, I buy one.
The 3 slot thingy is so obvious, yet so clever.

Wow, this seems like a dream board for the el cheapo enthusiast!Samus - Wednesday, August 24, 2005 - link
I'm considering replacing my Asus A8NSLI $200 board with this because the Asus has huge limitations on overclocking memory and FSB.bob661 - Wednesday, August 24, 2005 - link
Who would've ever thought to replace an Asus with a Jetway.Wesley Fink - Wednesday, August 24, 2005 - link
Thank you to those who pointed out errors in the review. The above items have been corrected.Avalon - Wednesday, August 24, 2005 - link
This board sounds amazing.bob661 - Wednesday, August 24, 2005 - link
Yeah, I'm in shock. Guess I'll keep an eye out on this one.Furen - Wednesday, August 24, 2005 - link
I was wondering if the EVGA SLI that you get for free when you purchase an Nvidia GeForce 7800gt/gtx is this same board (the board looks the same except for the color scheme)?
