ABIT Announces New Mainboards Based on the Intel 820 Chipset, the CX6
Taipei, Taiwan, R.O.C. March 24th, 2000-Following the launch of the long
awaited Intel 820 chipset, ABIT has announced a new Intel 820 solution to
the market. The ABIT CX6 is a PentiumR III AGP based ATX mainboard
supporting Ultra DMA 66/ SDRAM With ABIT's patented CPU Soft MenuTMII
technology. These is considered one of ABIT's premier boards based on the
Intel 820 chipset. "These have been a long time in coming, but I think it
will be worth the wait, the Intel 820 chipset is just fantastic", assured
ABIT's PR Manager Jeremy Smith. For SDRAM with 820, ABIT will introduce the
CH6. "We realize there will be different needs for 820 based products
because of the RAM issue, so we are offering 2 solutions, one with 2 RIMMs
the CX6, and one with 3 DIMMs the CH6", explains ABIT's Smith.

Based on a completely new chipset architecture, the CH6 and CX6 are AGP
based ATX mainboards supporting Intel PentiumR III/II CPUs, Ultra DMA 66,
Direct RDRAM or DIMM with CPU Soft MenuTM II technology and represent some
of ABIT's premier board technology based on the Intel 820 chipset. The Intel
820 chipset supports Advanced Configuration and Power Management Interface
(ACPI) and AGP 1X/2X/4X (Sideband) 1.5V/3.3V devices and support 100/133MHz
Front Side Bus settings.

Featuring the latest in memory technology, the CX6 supports 2 184-pin RIMM
sockets for Direct Rambus Memory modules for up to 1GB MAX. (64, 96, 128,
256MB) with 600, 700, 800MHz Direct Rambus Channels. The CH6 has 3 168-pin
DIMM sockets supporting SDRAM modules for up to 1GB MAX. (64, 128, 256,
512MB). There is also an AC'97 Digital Audio controller with integrated AC'
97 Audio CODEC on the boards with an included audio driver.

With ABIT's Soft Menu TM II the CX6 eliminates the need for jumpers or DIP
switches to set CPU parameters. The BIOS also has the Award Plug and Play
BIOS supporting APM and ACPI and features the Write-Protect Anti-Virus
function by AWARD BIOS.
With the CX6 and CH6 there are multi I/O functions with 2 Channels of Bus
Master IDE Ports supporting up to four Ultra DMA 66 devices. As well as
support for STR (Suspend to DRAM). They each have 1 Universal AGP slot, 5
PCI slots and 1 AMR slot with Hardware Monitoring of fan speeds, voltages,
system environment temperature and one thermal header for a CPU or other
temperature monitoring.

RDRAM
Provides memory bandwidth to keep up with ever increasing application
demands
Faster processors, graphics and I/O

RDRAM delivers up to 3x the effective bandwidth of PC100 SDRAM
1.5GByte/sec for PC800 RDRAM

RDRAM provides the required headroom for further application improvement
More realistic environments
Platform longevity and stability

What about the bandwidth and the benefits of concurrency?
-The IntelR 820 is 20-50% better than the best BX architecture in terms of
concurrency and heavy bandwidth workloads.
