The Siluro MX400 is a fine, no-nonsense card. It works well, with few gimmicky extras to increase its cost. There is the lack some overclocker-friendly features such as RAM sinks and active cooling for the GeForce2 MX400 core. However, this did not prevent us from achieving a nice overclocking margin, with the Siluro MX400 hitting a core/mem speed of 225/205. Although the original GeForce2 MX and the GeForce2 MX400 are nearly indistinguishable in performance, ABIT cannot really be blamed for this. Moreover, the MX400 might permit a wider margin of overclockability.

To top it off, ABIT uses a black PCB and unique packaging, making the Siluro MX400 aesthetically sound. WinDVD 2000, E-Color's 3Deep, partially personalized (though dated) drivers, ABIT's custom overclocking utility and a well-written manual round up the bundle. In short, if you're looking for a reasonably priced 3D graphics solution, with adequate features and competent performance, the ABIT Siluro MX400 just might be the ticket.

Highly Recommended.

NOTE : We have made the Siluro MX400 part of our motherboard testbed.
