ULi AP9567A (ULi M1695) - AGP	8167	-1.90

All motherboards achieved a similar performance without using SLI configuration.

We included K8SLI results with SLI for you to compare the performance difference you may expect when enabling SLI on this motherboard. Enabling SLI we had a 69.33% performance increase on this test.

Comparing the results among SLI-enabled motherboards (see table below), Albatron K8SLI achieved a performance similar to other motherboards we tested.
