The Duron 800 used in
testing this board was provided by the great guys at AMD. The VIA KT133 chipset
allows the memory to have independent timing of the FSB. I ran the memory
as 133 MHz CAS 3 with the memory socket at the "Normal" setting.
The "Turbo" setting would have given better performance but that
caused immediate lockups on reboot.
