SiS today unwrapped its latest 400MHz Frontside Bus Chipset for AMD's Athlon XP, an integrated product based on the company's Real 256E graphics engine.
The chipset, the SiS741, supports 400MHz DDR SDRAM, along with 266MHz and 333MHz memory. It offers an external AGP 8x graphics bus, but internally its graphics engine connects to main memory across SiS' Ultra AGP II bus, which boosts the throughput to 3.2GBps on a 400MHz DDR system, well above AGP 8x's 2.1GBps bandwidth. The chipset can support screen resolutions of up to 1600 x 1200.
