Overview
The 1stMainboard PAG-2130 is a MicroATX-sized Super 7 solution
offering high performance, the highest speeds for super 7 processors and
the very latest in quality onboard features. It supports the AMD® K6 ™ -III
400-450 MHz @ 100 MHz Front Side Bus and Pentium® MMX, AMD®
K6, AMD® K6-2, Cryix MII 300-366, IBM and IDT WinChip processors.
The PAG-2130 is based around the advanced architecture of the VIA
MVP4 and Super South chipset, giving advanced levels of performance
with high quality audio/visual capabilities.
The PAG-2130 comes with a
standard 1MB (manufacturing option: 2MB/512KB) of on-board cache.
With up to 2MB of SRAM cache on-board, the AMD K6-III 400-450MHZ
processors will significantly boot the PC's
performance.
The Super South chipset is a PC98 compliant PCI Super-I/O integrated
peripheral controller with integrated super-I/O, USB controller (with
support for four USB ports), keyboard controller, RTC, plug and play,
ACPI, enhanced power management, and temperature, voltage, and fan-
speed monitoring. With support for the new Ultra DMA66 protocol and its
high-speed interface, data transfer speeds and hard drive performance are
significantly improved.
The PAG-2130 has 3 DIMM for up to 768 MB SDRAM, and also offers
ECC memory support. It is equipped with, 4 PCI, and 1 ISA expansion slot.
The PAG-2130 is fully PC99 and Y2K compliant, and is ACPI ready,
ensuring improved energy efficiency. Other features include Wake-On-
LAN, IrDA,
Intel LDCM software (manufacturing option)
and CD Pro
with enhanced drivers. For the most up-to-date information about your
