In 4th place the FIC PA-2012 (AGP), using the VIA VP3 chipset, proves that Intel doesn't necessarily rule all with the AMD K6 processor, while the point differential between the 1st place FIC PT-2007 and the 14th place Chaintech 5TTM1 is only 1 Winstone point you need to realize that the most important factor in any motherboard purchase is the feature-set the motherboard in question provides you with.  The benchmarks do have some relevance, however they shouldn't be the deciding factor in your purchase.  Naturally you don't want to purchase the slowest motherboard here, however the performance of the top 20 motherboards on this chart are pretty much equal in terms of real world situations.

Not an overclocker?  At the top of the K6/233's favorites list is the DFI P5XV3 using an AGP video card which ties for first place with the TX based ASUS TXP4-X.  If you don't plan on overclocking your K6, the final decision hear boils down to which motherboard has the most PCI/ISA slots, the most DIMM/SIMM slots and the features to suit your needs.  In this case it is better to pay the Motherboard Reviews Index a visit and read the individual reviews of these motherboards to help you narrow down your choices to make your final decision much easier.
