The Via K8M890 chip set works with the aaaa range of Advanced Micro Devices:-)(AMD) Athlon64 processors and AMD Sempron processors, including processors made for the latest AM2 socket. The Via P4M900 chip set was made to work with Intel:-)processors up to the 1,066MHz front-side-bus speed, including the latest Intel Core 2 Extreme chips.
Aside from trouble-free installation, the certification ensures users can expect the chip sets to support functions that take advantage of some of Vista's new features. For example, both the Via K8M890 and Via P4M900 chip sets carry integrated graphics processing cores, the Via Chrome 9 IGP, which provide DirectX 9.0 graphics support and other enhancements meant to optimize Vista's visual experience. The two chip sets also support for the latest PCI Express add-in graphics cards, giving PC makers the flexibility to add greater graphics power, depending on user requirements.
Both chip sets are available now from all of the world's top motherboard makers, Via said.
