Chapter 1 Introduction
Features Summary
to be continued......
Due to chipset (Intel 875P/865G/865PE/848P) architecture limitation, a FSB 800 Pentium 4
processor will support DDR400/DDR333/DDR266 memory module. A FSB 533 Pentium 4
processor will support DDR333 and DDR266 memory module. A FSB 400 Pentium 4 processor
will only support DDR 266 memory module.
