Introduction of 694CS/VM4 Motherboard
1-1 Feature of motherboard
The 694CS/VM4 motherboard is design for use Intel PentiumIII /Celeron PPGA/FC-
PGA CPU, which utilize the Socket 370 design and the memory size expandable to
1.0GB.
This motherboard use the newest VIA Apollo Pro VT82C694X chipset, whose
133MHz front side bus & 133MHz memory interface delivers a clear upgrade path to
the future generation of 133MHz processors and PC-133 SDRAM. The 694CS
motherboard offers ULTRA DMA 100 (ATA 100) and VM4 motherboard offers
ULTRA DMA 66 (ATA 66) to provide speedier HDD throughout that boosts overall
system performance. Its on board integrated AC’97 2.1 CODEC which is fully
compatible with Sound Blaster Pro
®
that gives you the best sound quality and
compatibility.
The special function of Auto Setting and Jump-less solution, allows user to install
CPU without change any jumper. User can also setting Front Side Bus Frequency
(CPU Host Clock), CPU ratio in BIOS SETUP “Miscellaneous Control” for over-
clocking possibility.
With 2 USB control as well as capability of expanding to 4 USB connectors, the
694CS meet future USB demand also this motherboard includes built-in hardware
monitor function that capable of monitor and protect your computer.
The 694CS/VM4 motherboard supports ACPI function such like Ring_In Wake Up,
Ring_In Power On, Wake On LAN, Wake On Modem, RTC Power On for OS
Directed Power Management.
The Special function in BIOS SETUP can choose system clock step by step between
66
∼
99Mhz, 100
∼
132Mhz, 133
∼
166Mhz to approach Over-Clock possibility. This
board also provides system auto detection and rebooting function that uses default
frequency when system boot fail by over-clocking.
This motherboard supports standard Synchronous DRAM (SDRAM) and Virtual
Channel Memory SDRAM (VCM SDRAM), in a flexible mix/match manner.
This motherboard provides high performance & meets future specification demand. It
is really wise choice for your computer.
