Syntax - SV266AD - VIA Socket A ATX Motherboard with Audio, AGP 4X/2X/1X, USB 2.0 and 10/100Mbps Ethernet LAN Support
The Syntax SV266AD motherboard is a high performance and high quality mainboard which is built around the latest and fastest VIA KT266A and VT8235 chipset providing superior performance between the CPU, DRAM, AGP bus and V-Link bus with pipelined, burst and concurrent operation. This mainboard supports Socket A that accommodates AMD athlon processors with a frontside bus (FSB) speeds up to 266MHz.
The KT266A supports two banks of DDR Synchronous DRAMs up to 2GB for unbuffered modules. It Also fully supports full AGP v2.0 capability for maximum bus utilization including 1X, 2X and 4X mode transfer, SBA, Flush/Fence commands and pipelined grants.
The VT8235 Southbridge supports standard intelligent peripheral controllers such as USB 2.0/1.1 and Universal HCI 2.0/1.1 compliant, real time clock with 256 byte extended CMOS, integrated bus-mastering dual full-duplex direct-sound AC '97 link compatible sound system and full System Management Bus (SMBUS) interface.
Sufficient expansion is provided for with one AGP slot and five PCI slots. It also comes with a built-in Enhanced PCI Bus Master PCI IDE controller that provides high-speed connections to a full range of IDE devices such as HDD and CD-ROM. This mainboard is designed in a standard ATX form factor using a 4-layer printed circuit board.
