VIA officially announces Apollo KT400A
ания VIA Technologies announced an updated VIA Apollo KT400A chipset, which seems to be the last for AMD K7 platform.
This solution supports single-channel memory up to DDR400 and processors up to AMD Athlon XP 3000+. The novelty will be featured in KT400A + VT8237 and KT400A + VT8235CE bundles. New VT8237 Southbridge will provide Serial ATA support for up to 4 devices as well as 8 USB 2.0 ports (vs. 6 ports of the previous Southbridge versions).
Other KT400A specs in brief: up tp 4Gb DDR200/266/333/400 SDRAM; AMD Athlon XP and AMD Duron with 200/266/333MHz FSB; VIA Modular Architecture Platform initiative (V-MAP, for pin compatibility with previous versions), AGP 8X, etc. KT400A interconnects with VT8237 / VT8235CE Southbriges by 8X V-link with 533Mb/s pea throughput. I guess new motherboards are to follow within no time.
