Performance / Gaming
In Incoming Gameindex, the goal was to break the 500 fps mark, unfortunately, with only 455 fps at even a higher clock speed, the A7V266-E scored about 10 fps lower than the EPoX 8KHA+. Similarly, in Expendable, the ASUS A7V266-E did not reach the performance of the EPoX 8KHA+ or the Shuttle AK31 Rev.3.1. The reasons are not entirely clear, however, some bus turnaround latencies are most likely to be held accountable.

Expendable average frames per second: Neither at default speed nor with overclocking was the A7V266-E capable of catching up with either the EPox 8KHA+ or the Shuttle AK31 rev.3.1, even though the A7V266-E was running at higher clock speed
Quake3 Arena

Quake3 Arena Demo001 average fps at default speed and overclocked to 1727 MHz (144 MHz x 12.0) The two top columns are the scores at the "Fastest" setting, the bottom columns are scores at "Normal". Please keep in mind that in this case the Ti 500 accounts for a higher performance than what was possible with a standard GeForce3
