In popular 3DMark test set as well as in Quake3 Arena and Unreal Tournament 2003 the leadership indisputably belongs to Chaintech ZNF3-150, which is actually not surprising at all, since the processor works at a higher frequency on this mainboard. The performance of both BIOSTAR and Gigabyte mainboards also appeared pretty good. However, we have to stress one more time that the performance of all the testing participants is pretty close, so that the performance difference between the fastest and the slowest mainboard is maximum 2-3% only.
