This mainboard incorporates the VIA P4X333 Northbridge and
VT8235/8233A(CE) Southbridge chipsets that support AC 97 audio codec,
and provide Ultra DMA 33/66/100/133 function. If the VT8235 SB is installed,
the mainboard supports built-in USB 2.0 providing higher bandwidth, imple-
ments Universal Serial Bus Specification Revision 2.0 and is compliant with
UHCI 1.1 and EHCI 0.95; if the VT8233A(CE) SB, it doesn’t support USB2.0

There is a full set of I/O ports including two PS/2 ports for mouse and key-
board, two serial ports, one parallel port, one MIDI/game port and maximum
six USB ports --two back-panel ports and onboard USB headers make four
extra USB ports by connecting the Extended USB Module to the mainboard.
