The most important fact about this mainboard is that there are four memory slots placed on it. On the previous version of VIA P4X600 reference mainboard there were only two of them (see this news-story). As we know, VIA P4X600 supports dual-channel memory configurations, thus, with only two memory slots available, it is very uncomfortable to add more memory to such computer. Furthermore, such mainboard can utilize of up to 2GB of DDR SDRAM.

Since the product is practically a final one, I will reveal you its technical specifications (remember that the specs may be changed without any notices from VIA):

• Supports Socket 478 Pentium 4 / Celeron processors with 400/533MHz FSB with 3.06GHz clock-speed and above;
• Can take advantage of the CPUs with the Hyper-Threading technology enabled;
• VIA P4X600 core-logic with VIA VT8235 I/O controller;
• 4 DIMM slots for up to 4GB of PC1600, PC2100 or PC2700 DDR-SDRAM memory. Dual-channel memory bus support: the memory modules should be identical and installed in pairs.
• 5 PCI slots, 1 CNR slot and 1 AGP 8x slot;
• 2-channel ATA-133/100/66/33 integrated controller;
• Serial ATA-150 controller from Silicon Image, supporting 2 Serial ATA-150 ports;
• USB 2.0 ports;
• FireWire (IEEE 1394) ports;
• 10/100Mbit/s Ethernet adapter;
• AC’97 audio solution;
• ATX Form Factor.

You be able to purchase this device only in the first quarter next year because VIA had postponed the commercial release of the P4X600 (see this news-story).
