The SiS661FX chipset provides a high performance host interface for the Intel
®
Pentium
®
4 processor, and supports AGP 8X, 800MHz front side bus, and
DDR400. The SiS661FX features the SiS HyperStreaming™ Engine that smartly
manages data streams between peripherals, core logic chipsets, front side bus,
memory and graphic interfaces. This technology dramatically optimizes and
improves the entire computer system performance.

Providing I/O and peripheral support is the SiS963L southbridge. The southbridge
is a subsystem that integrates various I/O functions including dual-channel ATA133
bus master IDE, USB 2.0/1.1, Ethernet, and audio controllers. The SiS963L
provides LPC and AC’97 interfaces, and complies with the Advanced Power
Management (APM) 1.2 specification. The SiS963L interconnects with the
northbridge at up to 1GB/s using the SiS proprietary MuTIOL

DDR400 support
The motherboard supports up to 2GB of system memory using PC3200/2700/2100
non-ECC DDR DIMMs to deliver up to 3.2GB/s data transfer rate for the latest 3D
graphics, multimedia, and Internet applications. See page 1-10.

Real256E integrated graphics
Embedded in the northbridge is the SiS Real256E integrated graphics with a
256-bit 3D engine and 2D graphics accelerator with a maximum 64MB shared
display memory. The Real256E integrated graphics engine incorporates the
UltraAGPII™ technology to provide a faster link between the built-in graphic engine
and the northbridge memory controller. This technology boosts VGA throughput to
up to 3.2GB/s to bring clearer and sharper images for your multimedia and
graphic-intensive applications. The Real256E integrated graphics achieves a
maximum resolution of 2048x1526 at 32bpp. See page 2-19.
