    Semicon MPACT™ 2, which makes it the biggest difference among all the Pentium® II main boards. 6ABX3 utilizes Intel i440BX chipset and supports new architects such as SDRAM memory, Ultra DMA/33, bus master IDE and USB ports. It has three Dual In-line Memory Modules (DIMM) which can be installed with SDRAM memory .
  • Page 7 6ABX3 6ABX3 is also strengthened with Power Management Wake up Event such as “WOL (Wake up on LAN),” and “Modem ring on,” which are the new inventions to enable PCs to be turned on over the network or modem. These are also key benefits in PC operation, asset management, new system setup and power conservation.
