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.

If you're looking for an inexpensive, but still full featured Socket-370 board, the Freetech P6F107 should definitely be considered an option. Expansion and features are quite good for a Socket-370 board. However, if you do choose it, the biggest problem might be finding it. Unfortunately for Freetech, there's nothing that really makes the P6F107 stand out from the crowd and for just a few bucks more, a more stable board from a more well known manufacturer can easily be had.
