Our friends over at JC (http://www.chiptech.com/jc) have linked to a Taiwanese site which has details of VIA's Apollo Pro Plus 133 chipset. At the same time, JC has also supplied a translation of some of the material. According to the site, the chipset will support 133MHz front side bus (FSB) and PC-133, something which Intel has not, so far, implemented. Motherboard manufacturers already have samples, while VIA is collaborating with Samsung, NEC and Micron on the memory technology. ® Related Stories Compaq, Dell take VIA on board (http://www.theregister.co.uk/content/archive/3103.html) VIA unveils chipset roadmap, claims Camino late (http://www.theregister.co.uk/content/archive/2626.html) VIA puts chipset weight behind PC 133 (http://www.theregister.co.uk/content/archive/2625.html)
