Introduction

This mainboard has a slot-1 processor socket for an Intel

processor cartridge, and it also has a socket-370 for an

PPGA/FCPGA processor. You can install either one of these

processors according to the power and performance requirements

that you need from your system.

Note that you cannot install two processors on this mainboard.

Slot-1 processors include the SEPP (Single Edge Processor

Package) Celeron, the Penti m-II, the Penti m-III, and

Coppermine-type. Clock rates run as high as 750 MHz. Socket-

70 processors are the PPGA Celeron and FCPGA Coppermine

which runs at clock rates up to 750 MHz. The mainboard supports

a system bus of 66 MHz, 100 MHz or 133 MHz.

The mainboard uses the VIA Apollo Pro chipset which provides

CPU Pl g & Play through firmware. The mainboard is highly

integrated and includes a built-in PCI 3D So nd System. A V.90

Fax/Modem DAA mod le is also shipped with the mainboard. In

addition, the mainboard has a full set of I/O Ports including two

serial ports, one PS/2 ports, a parallel port and two USB ports.

This mainboard has all the features you need to develop a powerful

multimedia workstation with built-in communications. The board

is baby-AT sized and has power connectors for ATX and AT

power supply units.
