Intel To Boost Celeron Bus
News However, Intel officials maintain that most customers, consumers at large, are more concerned with overall system price and processor megahertz ratings than bus speeds. The chip maker, sources tell ZDNet News, will move its value-oriented Celeron...

ABIT Readies 100MHz Socket 7 AGP Board
News Formerly, users wanting access to Intel's accelerated graphics port (AGP) capabilities had to go with Intel's own Pentium II and Slot 1 architecture or stick with a 66MHz bus speed on Socket 7 boards.

Pentium III Chipset Delayed
News The 820 supports a 133MHz system bus, 4X AGP and new Rambus Direct RAM. IT managers will have to live with the Pentium III coupled with Intel's 440BX chip set, which supports a 100MHz system bus and 100MHz synchronous dynamic RAM, for a bit longer.

AMD Wants Intel's Speed Crown This Year
News Intel will begin producing motherboards based on its 440BX chipset in May or June, enabling the 333MHz part to run at its optimum thanks primarily to support for a 100MHz bus. MHz Pentium II is just a speed iteration until there's 100MHz bus...

Intel Plans 333MHz, 400MHz PII Chips
News In the first half of the year, Intel will release a 350MHz or 400MHz version of the Pentium II that supports a 100MHz system bus as well as today's 66MHz bus, sources said. The faster bus is critical to system performance.

Ruckus Over Intel's Rambus Technology - Part II
News The 440BX supports a 100MHz system bus, 100MHz synchronous dynamic RAM and 2X accelerated graphics port (AGP). The 820 will step up to a 133MHz bus, 4X AGP and Rambus Direct RAM as well as ATA66 support.

Eye2Eye With AMD's Jerry Sanders, Part II
News And with that, you know a 100MHz bus is not a very exciting solution. When we said we were going to go to a 100MHz front-side bus with the K62, up until then the front-side bus was 66MHz. A 700MHz part with a 200MHz bus is a lot more interesting.

Rambus-powered PCs In The Works
News The new chip set is significant for Intel because it replaces the ageing 440BX chip set, which offers a 100MHz system bus and support for synchronous dynamic RAM. The 820 also supports a 100MHz bus and 100MHz SDRAM as well, should a PC maker decide...

Intel Preparing Megahertz Megablitz
News Intel's current mainstream desktop chipset, the 440BX, supports a 100MHz bus, sources said. What moving to the 133MHz bus will mean to users is faster overall system performance, as the pipeline between the processor and system components, such as...

Intel's Pentium III Smorgasbord (Part 1)
News The chips all include 256KB of integrated Level 2 cache and support either a 100MHz or 133MHz system bus. The 500MHz, 550MHz, 650MHz and 700MHz chips support only a 100MHz system bus. The 667MHz and 733MHz chips support only a 133MHz bus.

US Report: New Intel Processors On The Way
News Intel is hesitated at releasing a Celeron with a 100MHz bus because of its potential to cannibalise sales of higher-end PCs based on Pentium II chips. IT managers will find that PCs with the new Celerons will perform almost on par with existing...
