DFI LanParty KT400A Motherboard Review

Author: Dennis Garcia

The BIOS is pretty typical with a wide range of features that allow you to control just about every aspect of your system. Actually just about everything is there except for AGP and PCI clock controls. I've been told that the AGP clock is locked but without having a locked PCI clock many of the onboard extras and/or add-on cards could have out of frequency problems.

The DFI overclocking options are contained in the Genie BIOS section and include your CPU and memory frequency tweaks along with all of the voltage controls. It should be noted that standard clock locked 133Mhz FSB processors could only be overclocked to 165Mhz FSB given the allowed BIOS settings, this is unless you manually set the FSB dipswitch to 166.

On to the benchmarks.
