VIA KM133 Socket-A Chipset: Final Battle of the Value Chipsets

3D Gaming Performance using GeForce2 GTS

In order to shorten the length of this review we’ve compiled all of the gaming benchmarks into the following page.  All of the performance tests were conducted at 640 x 480 x 32 under Windows 98SE. 

As we predicted in the SiS 730S review, the KM133 is performing on par with the KT133 when using the external AGP graphics instead of the integrated ProSavage video.

There is some variance in performance here but the trend continues, the KM133 is still on top of the 730S and on-par with the KT133.

The trend continues…

…and finally with Expendable, a very memory performance-dependent benchmark, the KM133 is again performing identically to the KT133.
