B.Ob. Posted July 14, 2005 Share Posted July 14, 2005 ULi M1695 PCIe/AGP Socket 939 for Athlon 64 "Just a month after the Computex launch, ULi has provided a Reference Board for their new chipset based on the M1695 coupled with a M1567 South Bridge. This combination is significant because it provides a full x16 PCIe video slot with an AGP 8X slot. ULi tells us that this is a full-performance AGP slot without compromise. We have seen others try to provide AGP support (ECS, Biostar) on a PCIe board by deriving the AGP from PCI, but these solutions were 50 to 60% the performance of a true 8X AGP, negating much of the reason for the AGP slot. This ULi solution, however, is a full-performance AGP 8X, combined with a full-performance x16 PCIe." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heftysmurf Posted December 19, 2005 Share Posted December 19, 2005 I have been very intrigued by this board. You can upgrade cheaply & then keep upgrading with this board. It is a shame Nvidia bought ULI. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was leary of ULi, but they have some good stuff and if they could give good softwware/firmware updates, I might buy one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
