support for UltraDMA/66, which allows burst mode data transfer rates of up to
66MB/sec.
®
• Intel Accelerated Hub Architecture: Features a dedicated high speed hub
link between the ICH1 and GMCH with a bandwidth of 266MB/sec – twice the
maximum bandwidth of the PCI bus.
• Onboard Audio: Features AC'97 2.1 Compliant ICH1 Internal Audio Control-
ler and Cirrus Logic CS4299 Codec..
• PC100/PC133 Memory Support: Equipped with two Dual Inline Memory Mod-
ule (DIMM) sockets to support PC100/PC133-compliant SDRAMs (available in
64, 128, 256, 512MB densities) up to 512MB.
• Solano Internal Graphics: Integrated graphics support (AGP 2.0 ).
• Universal AGP Slot: Comes with an Accelerated Graphic slot that supports
AGP cards for high performance, component level interconnect targeted at 3D
graphical applications using a 1X, 2X or 4X mode bus. (Backward compatible
to support AGP 4X and AGP 2X. This slot can also support an AGP Inline
Memory Module (AIMM) for up to 4MB of 133MHz SDRAM display cache.)
• UltraDMA33/66 Support: Comes with an onboard PCI Bus Master IDE con-
