Soyo SY-TISU: The tweaker’s motherboard
Out of all four of the motherboards we’re comparing here today, only one actually allowed for the adjustment of the core voltage supplied to the processor. As you can probably guess, that one motherboard was the Soyo TISU. The TISU rivaled the rest of the motherboards in terms of basic features, but blew the competition away in terms of overclocking/tweaking options.
The Soyo combo setup allowed 1MHz adjustment of the FSB from 100MHz up to 255MHz and, as we just mentioned, it allowed adjustment of the Tualatin’s core voltage in 0.025V increments.
Memory tweaking options were also a little more exhaustive than the other solutions. A nice feature was Soyo’s “Maximum Performance” setting which would automatically set all of your memory timings to the most aggressive values. The Maximum Performance setting worked fine with our Crucial PC133 CAS2 SDRAM.
