The freshly-announced DDR chipset by SiS aka SiS635T came pat for its first mainboard. Fascinated by the low price of SiS chipsets, PCChips has announced a new product built on this core logic. The newcomer is named M700LMR. It will support a complete line of Socket 370 CPU, including the upcoming 0.13-micron version of Pentium III with Tualatin core.
M700LMR has two slots for DDR SDRAM and two more for SDR SDRAM supporting up to 1MB of memory. It also features one AGP 4x, five PCI and one AMR slot. PCChips has evidently marketed M700LMR as a basis for cheap DDR SDRAM systems (we mean, when the price for DDR SDRAM will come down to a reasonable level): there are on-board AC’97 codec and 10/100Mbps LAN controller together with bundled AMR V.90 56K Fax/Modem card.
