EPoX 8KRA2+ Review @ Techware Labs

This Epox motherboard is sporting the new VIA KT600 chipset that fully supports the new 200Mhz FSB Athlon processors. Unlike the nForce2 it still uses a single channel memory controller.
"The VIA KT600 Northbridge is sheltered by a large copper passive heatsink. The larger heatsink dimension of 1.5" x 1.5" x 1.25" is suppose to compensate for the lack of a heatsink cooling fan. Beneath the heatsink is the VIA KT600 northbridge. EPoX used the sticky pink thermal compound commonly found on stock AMD coolers."
Has anyone noticed how all of the new Epox motherboards are looking alike now days?? Epox EP-8RDA+ for board layout comparison.
