The final contender we have in this roundup is VIA's own P4XB-SA, a motherboard based on the P4X266A chipset. The board isn't actually made by VIA but it's contracted out to a third party manufacturer and made under the VIA label.
The P4XB-SA was actually stable with all 3 DIMM slots populated and even offers DRAM voltage adjustment.
Obviously the biggest selling point for the P4XB-SA is the added performance that comes from the P4X266A North Bridge which you can judge for yourself in the test section.
