MPEG-4 Encoding Performance - 'Sum of All Fears' Ch. 9

The ULi M1695 is more than competitive with the best NVIDIA nForce4 boards that we have tested. The Business Winstone score for the ULi was the best that we have measured so far, and the Multimedia Content Creation Winstone was one of the top scores that we have seen. PCMark 2004 and Media Encoding showed performance at middle of the road compared to other nF4 Ultra boards. Overall, the ULi M1695/M1567 would have to be considered competitive in General Performance and Encoding with the fourth generation NVIDIA nForce4 chipset. This is not the first ULi/Ali chipset for Athlon 64, but ULi is anything but a recognized leader in this market. The fact that ULi competes very well with NVIDIA nForce4 in these benchmarks says a lot about the quality and potential of the ULi design.

    300HTT, AGP and PCIe on the same board without performance penalty, performance the same as NF4, and probably a cheaper chipset price due to being the underdog...sounds like ULi has something very promising on their hands. The only thing it seems to lack feature wise is gigabit LAN, but I don't care about that. Some may.
