DFI LanParty NFII Ultra @ Legion Hardware
"The LanParty NFII Ultra certainly is an impressive board from its extensive list of features to the superb performance. The board offers superior performance compared to its KT400A partner, however with a retail value of $170 it is also much more expensive. The LanParty KT400A retails for just $140 which is a $30 US saving and considering the boards share almost identical features the KT400A version really is a bargain. Nonetheless, for those seeking ultimate power look no further than the LanParty NFII Ultra."

HWZ review: ECS PF1 ´Photon´ (Intel 865PE)
"The new ECS PF1 ´Photon´ is certainly a brave new enthusiast board from ECS that´s sure to appeal to budget conscious buyers. It comes with all the frills that you´ll ever want, including Gigabit LAN, FireWire and Serial ATA. Although it doesn´t have support for IDE RAID or even SATA RAID, we think those features are reserved for the very power hungry user. So if you want any of those built-in functions, you´re out of luck."
