Albatron K8SLI Review
(15 Comments) »- With a street price of about $140 this board is one of the cheapest ways to get running on SLI, especially if you don't need features like IEEE1394 or a second LAN port.
- Very good performance
- Competitive price
- Good overclocking
- SLI is auto-switched
- Dual Bios via ABS
- Small footprint
- Needs more overclocking options in BIOS
- On-board audio could be better
- No IEEE1394
The Albatron K8SLI is a board designed with cost in mind, but performance has not been left out. All benchmarks show that it can compete with other more expensive boards.
If you want to overclock you can definitely buy this motherboard, it should have enough headroom for any CPU or memory you will throw at it. Hardcore overclockers might want more BIOS settings to tweak their board with, but for everybody else there are enough options.
