HOT-679V is a highly integrated IBM PC/ATX compatible system board designed to
meet the industry's most demanding desktop applications.
Based on the VIA VT82C692 chipset which support up to 500MHz Pentium
TM
II proces-
sor with MMX technology.
HOT-679V is equipped with an Accelerated Graphics Port (A.G.P.), a high-performance
interconnect for graphic-intensive application, such as 3D applications. The A.G.P. is
independent of the PCI bus and is designed to exclusively use with graphical-display
devices. The HOT-679V supports 3.3 V A.G.P. devices with data transfer rates up to 133
MHz, allowing data throughput of 500 MB/sec.
The VIA's VT82C692 AGPset chipset provides an integrated Bus Mastering IDE
controller with two high performance IDE interfaces which allows up to four IDE
devices connection and up to 33 MB/sec of data transfer rates.
The on-board I/O controller provides standard PC I/O functions:
floppy drive interface, two FIFO serial ports, an InDA device port and a SPP/EPP/ECP
capable parallel port.
HOT-679V is built with three PCI local bus slots providing a high bandwidth data path
for data-movement intensive functions such as graphics, and with one ISA slot.
HOT-679V provides the foundation for cost effective, high performance and highly
expandable platforms, which delivers the latest in the Intel Pentium
TM
II processor and
new advanced chipset technology.
