The ECS KN1 SLI Extreme is a massive upgrade from something that is only two years old. Unfortunately I do not have any more recent boards to compare it to. However, when you look around and compare the performance of the KN1 SLI Extreme to other nForce4 SLI-based boards you will find that it is right in the ballpark with the rest of them. The board has worked flawlessly for over two months now as I have put it through its paces running Folding while having marathon gaming sessions of World of Warcraft or Call of Duty 2, it has never hiccupped once. Heck, I was able to crank up all the features and still double my frame rates in WoW...

ECS has provided us with another motherboard from its Extreme range in the form of the KN1 SLI Extreme, supporting AMD's Socket 939 Athlon 64 CPUs. It comes with gigabit ethernet, dual RAID, SATA II, IEEE 1394a Firewire, 10 USB2 ports and dual PCI-Express x16 interconnects for NVIDIA SLI. This board is packed with features for the hardcore user, but does it have the performance and reliability to match? We report our experiences over the next few pages...

The ECS KN1-SLI Extreme looks like a pretty sweet motherboard for anyone on a budget who wants good performance, and the all important option of running dual PCI Express x16 SLI-compatible videocards. Based on the nVidia nForce4 SLI chipset, the ECS KN1-SLI Extreme supports all the current flavours of Socket 939 AMD Athlon64/FX/X2 processors. Its four DDR DIMM slots can be installed with as much as 4GB of PC3200 DDR memory (non ECC unbuffered) in a dual channel configuration...

The 'New ECS' is entering the enthusiast arena with their Extreme line of mainboards. The KN1 SLI is no exception having great features that are found on much more expensive boards like dual lan, SATA2, PCI express SLI, and 8 channel audio, and many more all for around $130. ECS has done a lot of R+D on their new products and they have been able to get a full featured board at a budget price...
