Soyo heeft een nieuw slot1 plankje in elkaar getimmerd (leuke woordkeuze ). Het ding heeft 29 FSB settings, doet aan voltage tweaking en heeft een jumperless Softmenu-achtig BIOS instel gevalletje. Klinkt niet slecht!
Soyo today announced that its SY- 6BA+3 motherboard will feature new components and software-driven features designed to maximize the performance of Intel’s new Pentium III CPU as well as the management of systems built with the SOYO motherboard.The ATX footprint motherboard will also be bundled with Symantec’s Norton AntiVirus to protect board components and software from virus attacks, as well as Symantec’s Norton Ghost disk cloning software, and Virtual Drive CD-ROM emulation application.
SOYO’s SY-6BA+3 motherboard has been reengineered with a new clock generator that allows the CPU Frontside System Bus (FSB) and PCI bus clock to be configured 29 different ways -- from 66MHz-155MHz -- in order to fine-tune the system bus speed for performance-oriented applications such as 3D modeling, animation or gaming. The new design also protects overclocked systems from crashes, particularly when using PCI bus add-in cards, because the redesigned SY-6BA+3 automatically sets the PCI bus clock to a safe level when the CPU FSB is set. When users overclock the CPU FSB, the PCI bus clock will be automatically clocked to a safe level. Other enhancements geared to overclocking include adjustable CPU Core voltage. Users can set CPU Core voltage directly through the BIOS directly without jumpers.
