Albatron KX600S Pro Motherboard Carbondale IL

Introduction

With the advancements in the AMD segment, it is easy to sometimes overlook what is still tried and true, and none the less, still a popular platform for overclockers and hardcore overclockers on more of a budget.

The AMD Athlon platform gave AMD its title crown as king of the CPU's. In a time when Intel was king and AMD was just an alternative CPU, a brave new core entered into the arena, and upset everything from Intel's speed claims to DRAM migration to RDRAM - yes sir, AMD Athlon caused quite a stir.

It has been relegated to the back burners of AMD's advancement charts, with Athlon 64, FX and Opteron taking up all of the R&D dollars and it's not likely you will see too much advancement from AMD on the Athlon parts.

The KT600 chipset has been VIA's biggest step up on the AMD Athlon platform. The KT600 was introduced to fix a lot of the problems in performance and compatibility the KT400 series had, as well as to try and compete with the nForce2 Ultra series of chipsets.

We have Albatron's more budget orientated KT600 motherboard with some rather good overclocking features. Come and take a look.
