Leadtek, bekend van de videokaarten, heeft in een grijs verleden ook moederborden geproduceerd en is nu blijkbaar terug van vakantie. Om weer meteen goed binnen te komen worden een vijftal plankjes geïntroduceerd. Vier daarvan zijn Socket370 borden, zoals de WinFast 9500DDR met Apollo Pro266 chipset, de microATX versie daarvan en nog twee borden die op elkaar lijken; de WinFast 9200 en 9100AX, voorzien van respectievelijk de 815E en 815EP chipsets van Intel. De laatste daarvan heeft geen geïntegreerde videocore. Het enige Socket A bord in de serie is de WinFast 7300K7, uitgevoerd in het microATX formaat met SiS 730 chipset:
- WinFast 9500DDR. This ATX mainboard is based on VIA Apollo Pro266 chipset and supports Socket370/FC-PGA processors. There are 3 DIMM slots for up to 3GB PC1600/PC2100 DDR SDRAM, 5 PCI and 1 AGP 4x slots. The mainboard supports ATA/100 (VT8233 South Bridge) and features V-Link bus between the chipset bridges. There are also AC’97 sound codec and ATA/100 RAID controller onboard. The mainboard allows changing processor Vcore and the FSB frequency in the interval between 66 and 250MHz with 1MHz increments.
- WinFast 9300DDR. This is a MicroATX version of the previous board. Unfortunately, we don’t know how many PCI and DIMM slots there will be (most probably there will be 3 PCI and 2 DIMM).
- WinFast 9200. This ATX board is built on Intel 815E chipset and supports Socket370/FC-PGA CPUs. It is equipped with 3 DIMM slots for the maximum of 512MB PC100/PC133 SDRAM. The board features an integrated graphics core, 6 PCI slots, 1 AGP 4x slot and 4 USB ports. Besides, it also has AC’97 codec and supports ATA/100. As for the overclocking friendly features, they are just the same as those of WinFast 9500DDR.
- WinFast 9100AX. This mainboard is very similar to the previous one but it is built on Intel 815EP chipset (Intel 815E without the integrated graphics core).
- WinFast 7300K7. This MicroATX mainboard is designed on SiS 730S chipset and supports Socket A processors. We don’t know exactly how many DIMM slots for PC100/PC133 SDRAM there will be (probably 2). As for the other expansion slots, there are 3 PCI and 1 AGP 4x, though there is also an integrated graphics core. The mainboard supports ATA/100. The options for CPU overclocking weren’t reported about.
