Albatron is still a fairly new player in the motherboard arena, but they’ve already proven that they have what it takes to run with all of the well established players. While many major motherboard companies have released disappointing vanilla boards with limited overclocking options as of late, Albatron instead continues to come up with innovative new features and focus on the enthusiast, rather than OEM. With that big 667mhz FSB label right on the box, its clear that Albatron stands behind this board as an overclocking champ. We certainly have no reason to doubt them, as the last Albatron board we tested, the PX845G Pro II was able to make 190mhz FSB. Can Albatron deliver another knockout with the new i845PE based PX845PE Pro IIS? Lets find out!
The box is still the attractive copper and silver combination, a nice break from the more typical random CG snarling...gargoyle thing, which is found on most hardware boxes these days.
Inside the box is a floppy cable, an ATA-100 cable and two yellow true ATA-133 cables, instruction manuals for the motherboard and Promise RAID controller, a quick start guide, and driver\utilities CD.
