54. y Although both processors are related there are key differences The AMD Athlon processor is targeted at the performance segment and as such will have more cache memory and higher clock speeds Ultra ATA 66 100 The board provides two channel one channel is optional Ultra ATA 66 100 Bus Master IDE controller that support Ultra ATA 66 100 protocols perfect for such demanding applications as real time video multimedia and high performance operating system A new IDE cable is required for Ultra ATA 66 100 This cable is an 80 conductor cable however the connectors are of course backwards compatible with ATA 33 Hardware Monitoring Hardware monitoring allows you to monitor various aspects of your systems operations and status The features include CPU temperature voltage and RPM of fan Page 1 3 Introduction Mainboard Form Factor The board is designed with Micro ATX form factor the new industry standard of chassis Micro ATX form factor is essentially a Baby AT baseboard rotated 90 degrees within the chassis enclosure and a new mounting configuration for the power supply With these changes the processor is relocated away from the expansion slots allowing them all to hold full length add in cards Micro ATX defines a double height aperture to the rear of the chassis which can be used to host a wide range of onboard I O Only the size and position of this aperture is defined allowing PC manufacturers to add new I O fe
