•
•
•
•
•
•
•
"Hyper-Threading" technology enables the operating system into thinking it's hooked
up to two processors, allowing two threads to be run in parallel, both on separate "logical"
processors within the same physical processor.
Chipset
The VIA PM800 Northbridge (NB) and VT8237 Southbridge (SB) chipset is based on an
innovative and scalable architecture with proven reliability and performance.
