Another first from ECS
Hot on the heals of their dual graphic engines range of motherboards, ECS have just announced the ECS PF88, a converter card that enables AMD and Intel technologies to be used on the same platform.
The first ECS motherboard designed to be compatible with the new PF88 is based around the Intel P4 LGA775 socket and includes 4 slots of DDR2 667 memory, a 1066FSB, SATA2, GigaLAN, 1394a Firewire, and makes use of the SiS656 Northbridge and a SiS965 Southbridge.
The SiS965 Southbridge is shared with the converter card, which is based around the AMD socket 939, and has its own dedicated SiS756 Northbridge, 2 slots of DDR400, power management circuits and a FSB2000T, which are required to run AMD K8 technology. PF88 and the motherboard support the latest dual core technology from Intel and AMD.
Look out for a review as soon as we lay our hands on the board.
