SOYO KT333 DRAGON Ultra Review @ VR-Zone
Published: Thursday, April 25, 2002 | By: DennisI have started to become quite fond of the Dragon Series Motherboards from Soyo, they come equipped with everything that the hardcore system builder and tuner would ever need while still providing out of box system performance for those in a hurry. Feel free to check out the VR-Zone review but don?t expect anything more than "par" performance when compared to any other KT333 or KT266 chipset enabled motherboard.

SiS645DX Chipset Review @ x-bit labs
Published: Monday, April 22, 2002 | By: Dennisx-bit labs gives us an in-depth look at the SiS645DX that has unofficial DDR400 memory support and a sporty new 533MHz Front Side Bus. The unfortunate thing is that this chipset will soon be shadowed by the next-generation SiS648 and SiS648DX in May which ironically is around the same time the 533MHz Pentium 4 Processors will be released, Can you say "waste of time?" I knew you could.
