 The Intel® 440ZX AGPset brings 100-MHz FSB (front-side bus), ATA/66 HDD support in UDMA mode 2, and PC100 SDRAM performance to entry-level Performance PCs. With 50 percent more system bandwidth than a 66-MHz bus, this AGPset provides the perfect complement to the Intel® Pentium® II processor and AGP graphics cards. When coupled with AGP graphics cards, the 440ZX AGPset allows developers to achieve 2X AGP performance and realize the dramatic 3D and video performance Benefits of Intel's Quad Port Architecture, including the highest levels of floating-point and integer performance. The 100-MHz performance advantage makes the 440ZX AGPset the perfect platform design solution for today's leading-edge graphics software, while providing ample headroom for tomorrow's applications.
The 440ZX AGPset is also a cost-effective solution. It builds on the proven value of the Intel® 440BX AGPset architecture to bring Intel quality and reliability to Performance PCs at entry-level prices. Intel® 440BX AGPset footprint-compatibility and architectural commonality mean that the 440ZX can optimize time-to-market and return on investment by reducing validation requirements and extending the value of proven system designs.
