Athlon
TM
(600, 650, 700, 750, 800, 850, 900, 950, 1000, 1100, 1200,1300, 1400MHz)
Duron
TM

Chipset Northbridge
The VIA™ VT8363A (VIA Apollo KT133A) system controller supports a 200/266 MHz
Front Side Bus (FSB); up to 1.5GB of PC133/PC100 SDRAM / VC 133 Virtual Channel
Memory (VCM) SDRAM; The KTAPRO complies with AGP 2.0 specifications for 4X, 2X,
and 1X AGP modes and PCI 2.2. bus interface with support for 5 PCI masters. It was
designed especially to deliver enhanced AMD Athlon™ / Duron™ processor system
performance.
Chipset Southbridge
The VIA VT82C686B PCI Super-I/O Integrated Peripheral Controller (PSIPC) supports
UltraDMA/100, which allows burst mode data transfer rates of up to 100MB/sec; AC97
audio (Using the on-board VIA 1611A Audio Codec); USB controller with root hub and
four function ports.
Memory
This motherboard comes equipped with three Dual Inline Memory Module (DIMM)
sockets to support Intel PC133/PC100-compliant (64, 128, 256, or 512MB) DIMM
modules up to 1.5GB. In addition NECs VC133-compliant Virtual Channel (VC) SDRAM
is also supported. (VC SDRAM is a new DRAM architecture that greatly improves the
system memory ability to service high multimedia requirements.)
PCI Expansion Slots
With five 32-bit PCI (Rev. 2.2) expansion slots, which can support Bus Master PCI cards,
such as LAN or Video-grabber cards (PCI supports up to 133MB/s maximum throughput),
this motherboard is ready for the most demanding applications.
ISA Expansion Slot
With one 16-bit ISA expansion slot, which can accepts plug-in boards that control the
sound, and other peripherals.
