Summation
The
PS4 Dragon Ultra, like the P4ISR is another feature packed Soyo board for
the Pentium 4. With its several features such as 6 channel C-Media audio,
external USB header and powerful overclocking potential makes this board a
good choice for people looking for a robust and high performance motherboard
for the Pentium 4.
SIS has done an outstanding
job with its SIS645 chipset. With the support of DDR333 memory, SIS shows
some impressive results in all of the tests and performs very close to Intel’s
high end 850 solution.
It was a pleasure testing
the P4S Dragon Ultra, we didn’t experience any stability issues whatsoever.
It’s currently running full time on our video test machine and I must
say that I’m very satisfied with it so far.
We pointed
out a few design flaws on the P4S, the major one being the placement of the
main IDE connectors, I would have highly appreciated seeing them below the
third DIMM slot. Still, If I were building a Pentium 4 system today, the P4S
with DDR333 memory would be my first choice.
