HARDWARE CONFIGURATION
This motherboard is based on the VIA® Apollo MVP4 Chipset. The chipset is a
highly integrated solution for a cost-effective and compact motherboard.
Features include internal AGP Version 2.0 compliant, PCI bus master IDE, PCI
Ver 2.2 compliance, AC 97 Codec Sound. DIMM sockets are provided on board,
allowing flexible installation of main memory. The on board pipelined burst
cache further boosts the system performance.
