Shuttle AV40R Review
OC Workbench has posted a review on the Shuttle AV40R motherboard. Shuttle has made in roads to the Athlon boards with it´s award winning AK31 rev 2. 0. To date, Intel has only introduced Brookdale (i845) which does paralysed the P4 system performance with bundling it with SDRAM.

Shuttle has made in roads to the Athlon boards with it´s award winning AK31 rev 2.0. To date, Intel has only introduced Brookdale (i845) which does paralysed the P4 system performance with bundling it with SDRAM. The problem with SDRAM is that it deters the real performance of the Pentium 4. As we can see, the next logical step would be to go with DDR, but Intel only licensed this technology to SiS and ALi. That is also why you don´t see many manufacturers producing P4 DDR boards using P4x266 which is still in a licensing battle. Shuttle has made a bold move by adopting the VIA P4X266 chipset for the fresh Pentium 4 supporting the DDR modules.
