The Test
In recent times, choosing a motherboard cannot be completely determined by a Winstone score. Now, many boards come within one Winstone point of each other and therefore the need to benchmark boards against each other falls. Therefore you shouldn't base your decision entirely on the benchmarks you see here, but also on the technical features and advantages of this particular board, seeing as that will probably make the greatest difference in your overall experience.

AnandTech has been giving out final decisions for close to two years now, and during that time a number of manufacturers that normally have incredible products have received a thumbs down. It's not a recommendation that is intended to ruin a company, rather it's a call to action. Shuttle has between now and September to get their act together, and Intel is providing three new chipsets for them to try their hands at. Let's hope, for Shuttle's sake, that they can put the 810 and the upcoming 820 to good use.
