Chaintech präsentiert weiteres Athlon 64 Board

Mit dem SK8T800 hat [url=http://www.chaintechusa.com]Chaintech[/url] ein weiteres AMD Athlon 64 Board vorgestellt. Es basiert auf dem VIA K8T800 + VT8237 Chipsatz und unterstützt auf den zwei DIMM Steckplätzen bis zu 2 GB DDR266/333/400 Speicher. Hinzu kommen noch 1x AGP 8fach, 5x PCI, 5.1-Channel AC'97, S/PDIF Out, 2x Ultra DMA-66/100/133 IDE, 8x USB 2.0, 10/100Mb Fast Ethernet und 2x Serial-ATA. Wann das Mainboard auf den Markt kommen soll und wieviel es dann kosten wird, ist noch unklar. Die nForce 3-Version von Chaintechs AMD Athlon 64-Serie hatten wir vor einiger Zeit schon einmal im Test. Das Chaintech ZNF3-150 war ähnlich gut ausgestattet - das VIA K8T800-Mainboard bietet nun also auch die Option, ein Chaintech-Board mit VIA-Chipsatz zu ergattern.[center][img]http://www.hardwareluxx.de/andreas/News/sk8t800_L.jpg[/img][/center]
