Via CLE266 Chipset 16.94.44.09 WHQL

Combining a fully integrated video processing feature set, 2D/3D graphics engine and ultra efficient VIA DDR memory controller, the VIA CLE266 Chipset is designed to enable high quality digital video streaming and DVD playback in a new generation of fanless, small form factor PCs and IA devices.
The VIA CLE266 chipset is the product of a new vision, blending the power of VIA DDR Chipset technology with the features required for a complete range of digital video functions. These include MPEG-2 decoding and video scaling for high quality DVD acceleration and an integrated 128-bit 2D and 64-bit 3D graphics engine with internal AGP 8X and Alpha Blending for multimedia and gaming applications.
Supplied with 2.1GB per second of bandwidth from the ultra-fast DDR memory subsystem, the VIA CLE266 enables real world performance in key applications like video streaming or DVD playback that equals that of the most powerful PC systems in production today, while operating as part of a fanless power efficient, low cost device. In addition the CLE266 supports CRT, LCD or TV dual display technology, two Video Capture ports and Picture in Picture functionality for multi-channel capability.
The VIA CLE266 North Bridge is connected to the very latest in South Bridge technology, the VIA VT8235 through a 4X V-Link connection to the North Bridge transferring data at 266MB/s, twice the speed of the conventional PCI bus. This enables CLE266 based systems and devices to take advantage of the integrated support for 6 USB 2.0 ports with 40 times more bandwidth than USB 1.1, as well as ATA-133, the fastest available IDE interface. Additional features include integrated VIA MAC for 10/100Mbps Ethernet, integrated PCI support, 6 Channel Surround Sound AC-97 audio interface and MC-97 modem.
