VIA's KT266A: The Saga Continues

Business & Content Creation Performance (continued)

Although we had always assumed that the Internet Content Creation suite of SYSMark 2001 was very bandwidth intensive because of Windows Media Encoder, we proved the contrary in our P4X266 review.  Thus it isn’t surprising that the KT266A does not achieve a huge advantage over the competition here. 

The same holds true for the Office Productivity suite under SYSMark 2001; the SiS 735 is even able to outperform the KT266A once again.

The overall performance picture painted gives the KT266A a slight advantage over the SiS 735.
