Thank you for choosing the KT600-A motherboard. The KT600-A is designed
to fit the advanced AMD processors in the 462-pin package, supporting socket
462 AMD Athlon XP / Sempron / Athlon / Duron processors. Based on the ATX
form factor featuring the VIA KT600 Northbridge and VT8237 Southbridge
chipsets, this motherboard provides the standard 400/333/266/200 MHz front
side bus with extra capability.
Taking advantage of the highly integrated chipsets, the KT600 Northbridge
provides superior performance between the CPU, DRAM, V-Link bus and in-
ternal AGP 8x graphics controller bus with pipelined, burst, and concurrent
operation. The VT8237 Southbridge supports standard intelligent peripheral
controllers such as USB v2.0/1.1 and Universal HCI v2.0/1.1 compliant, real
time clock with 256 byte extended CMOS, integrated bus-mastering dual full-
duplex direct-sound AC97 link compatible sound system and full System
Management Bus (SMBus) interface.
To top it all, the motherboard has a complete set of I/O Ports such as dual
channel IDE interfaces, a floppy controller, two high-speed serial ports, an
EPP/ECP capable bi-directional parallel port connector, four USB (Universal
Serial Bus) connector, a PS/2 keyboard connector, mouse connector and au-
dio jacks for microphone, line-in, line-out. One AGP slot, four PCI local bus
slots and one communication and networking riser (CNR) slot provide ex-
pandability for add-on peripheral cards.
This motherboard is ideal for high performance and high quality computer
system.
