Once more it is time for a new motherboard review at NordicHardware. We take a look at Albatron’s PX848PV/Pro which is based on a new budget chipset for the Pentium 4 platform, Intel 848P.
“This is actually a direct follow-up of the old i845PE chipset. The news include, among other things, support for DDR400, 800MHz FSB and AGP 8X. On many occasions these are the same specifications of the Springdale and Canterwood chipsets but there’s one major difference. The memory controller of the i848P chipset doesn’t support Dual Channel DDR, only Single Channel. Memory bandwidth is thus far from that of its bigger brothers, the Springdale and Canterwood chipsets.”
