BX6 2.0

BX6(Rev 2.0) Pentium^®II AGP Based ATX Mainboard With CPU SOFT MENU^TM II Technology

This is ABIT's premier, all around full-featured, full spec 440BX motherboard for SOHO or multimedia environments. It has offical support for Intel's newest Pentium^®III 450 ~ 500MHz and Pentium^®II 350 ~ 450MHz processors running on the 100MHz system bus as well as being backwards compatible to support Pentium^®II 233 ~ 333MHz processors. It comes with WinBond chipset for hardware monitoring of fan speed, voltages, and system temperature capabilities. The BX6 Rev. 2.0 comes with Four DIMM sockets enhanced by the 6 chip Data Buffer set, providing enough stable main memory capacity for any business computing, 3D gaming, multimedia, applications and CAD/CAM type applications.
