Leadtek K7N420-DA nForce Motherboard Review
Synthetic 3D and System Benchmarks
3DMark2000
3DMark2000 is a synthetic Direct3D benchmark that is compatible with DirectX 7. It takes full advantage of the Geforce2, ATi Radeon and DirectX 7 enhancements. 3DMark2000 has become one of the world's most used benchmark utilities.

Here we see the Leadtek board falter compared to KT266A and KT333. Poor memory performance accounts for this.
3DMark2001 SE
3DMark2001 SE is the latest installment in the popular 3DMark series. By combining DirectX 8.1 support with completely new graphics (including the GeForce4), it continues to provide benchmark results that empower you to make informed hardware assessments.

Same trend in 2001 as in 2000. The poor memory performance of the nForce makes the Leadtek take the back seat to the VIA Athlon masters.
PCMark2002 Pro
PCMark2002 is a completely new, multipurpose benchmark, suited for benchmarking all kinds of PCs, from laptops to workstations, as well as across multiple Windows operating systems. This easy-to-use benchmark makes professional strength benchmarking software available even to novice users. PCMark2002 consists of a series of tests that represent common tasks in home and office programs. PCMark2002 also covers many additional areas outside the scope of other MadOnion.com benchmarks.

Here we see that PCMark2002 shows just how bad the memory performance really is. It gets even worse when using the onboard GF2MX video controller.
