radx 0 Posted January 28, 2000 Howdye peeps, What is the big deal about upgrading to DMA66 compatiable ide-controller? Especially since you nowdays usually have to change the entire motherboard to get it. Ofcause you buy an expansion card but that will occupy a free pci slot and that stinks when you need all those 5 (like me). How large is the diffrence between dma66 and dma33? is it really noticable? I haven't seen any benchmarks on the net, so if you have any i'd appreciate getting the link. Does dma66 work better under win2k than dma33 does? And a last question, which is the best dma66 controller if you recommend upgrading? is it the new abit motherboard? I've got as of current a stinkin BH6 mobo. Thanks! Share this post Link to post
