The Sharky Extreme test lab has already tested numerous nVidia TNT based boards from the likes of Diamond, STB and Hercules. But what about little known Taiwanese board manufacturer's, Skywell technology? They also make a TNT based product don't you know? Thus we've taken a long hard look at one of their Magic TNTs to see just how it stands up against the other 'branded' TNTs. Just to make sure you know what you're getting with the Magic TNT, take a look below at the Specs list. You'll quickly see that the list matches almost any other TNT and that's because it's a straight reference design.
