Of course, Soyo has ensured that it's definitely not about the benchmarks alone. Rather than simply switching to KT333 and leaving the rest of the board alone, Soyo has taken this opportunity to provide a more capable RAID controller and USB 2.0 support, among other things. The real kicker here is that the higher functionality doesn't mean a higher price; the DRAGON Ultra is currently available for as low as $140. Coincidentally, that's exactly the same price that the DRAGON Plus board cost when we reviewed it.
