VIA chipsets


This is a list of computer motherboard chipsets made by VIA Technologies.

AMD licensed the VIA Apollo VP2/97 core logic architecture as its AMD 640 chipset.

- Support product: (VIA VB6002 Mini-ITX Board)

- Support product: (BenQ Joybook R42)

As a modular solution, the North and South Bridge of the VIA Apollo KT266A are completely pin compatible with current and future products, such as the VT8233C South Bridge with integrated 3Com Ethernet MAC.

The KT133 chipset corrupted disc subsystems. Specifically, the 686B Southbridge had issues with Creative's SBLive! sound cards. A BIOS update was released by VIA to fix this issue, however it is not known if all motherboards with 686Bs had their BIOSes updated. The KT266 contains a hardware bug which cause system instability when using the AGP slot at the specified max capacity of 4×. [14]
