OC Workbench has posted a new article : War of the Chipsets - VIA KT266A, SiS735, ALi MAGIK1 B0 and AMD 761

The VIA Apollo KT266A features an enhanced memory controller, designed with exceptionally high performance in mind. Supporting DDR200/266 memory, the VIA Apollo KT266A provides lightning fast access to system memory. Timings have been improved, resulting in faster transfers between the synchronized Front Side Bus and Memory Bus. Also, the new memory controller with Performance Driven Design can burst up to eight Quad Words of data per clock, up from four in previous designs. Data queues have also been deepened, allowing faster and more efficient access to buffered data. The end result is the industry’s fastest DDR memory controller.
