Explosive Labs has completed a VIA KT333 motherboard roundup review featuring motherboards from Soltek, Gigabyte, AOpen, Biostar, and Jetway.

Other key features include AGP4X, ATA-100 (ATA-133 in the VT8233A), integrated six channel advanced audio through the C-Media 8738 chip, six USB ports, LPC bus, and integrated 10/100Mbps ethernet and home PNA, AC-97 audio.
