Great News from Anand Forum
"In anands benchs For this ali chipset are alot slower than any others on the net like 30 fps in quake 3 now that's quite a bit of difference the only explanation for this is these benchmarks actually come from an article ANANDTECH released on the ali magik on november 29th with the board was in its first or second rev. now its on its 5th or 6th and the speed has grown exponitialy by comparison and the board, It also wouldnt supprise me if the Linpack scores come from the same first rev board."

memory scores for my system
594/806!!!!!
xbit labs reports
540/704
sharky extreme reports
553/699
Thats a difference of 54/102 thats quite a difference for comparable systems all due to (lower rev boards and non tweaked bios settings)
Then take a look at the diff between the the so called "DDR killer" and my (ali magik)
my scores (ali magik)
594/806
KT133A xbit reports
404/446
thats an astonishing difference of 190/360 thats =47%/80.7% alu/fpu
Now I have to agree the kt133a might be a amd760 killer, but I doght it will even come close to killing the ALI magik chipset.
but who knows maybe I'm "counting my chickens before they hatch".
AliMagik KA266 is definetively the mobo to go, the true SDR killer !
It was just a matter of rev. and bios immaturity.
Sorry Anand...
