five?
ABIT's
new
BH6
has
One
AGP,
Five
PCI
and
Two
ISA
slots
to
handle
all
of
your
expansion
needs.
It
also
has
official

~
400MHz
processors
running
on
the
100MHz
system
bus
as
well
as
being
backwards
compatible
to
support
Pentium®II

Features
of
Tomorrow
for

The
ABIT
BH6
comes
with
all
of
the
latest
advancements
and
trends
in
the
motherboard
industry,
including
but
not
limited
to;
all

games.
APM stands for Advanced Power Management and it is a feature rich power management function for a more energy efficient P.C. It includes Soft Power On/Off, Sleep, Suspend and Stand-By mode, Real Time Clock (RTC) Alarm and RTC Power On, and Modem Ring On. The networking standard Wake On Lan (WOL) is also supported. The ABIT BH6 also supports the new standard in hard disk drive technology, Ultra DMA 33. It allows for double the transfer rate over standard IDE drive technology. Wireless keyboards, printers, mouse and joysticks are also supported by the BH6 thanks to the on board iRDA (Infrared) pin header. There are also two USB connectors on the ABIT BH6 so you can take advantage of the newest Universal Serial Bus peripherals. Also included are PS/2 mouse and keyboard connectors if you prefer to use this other new type of keyboard and mouse port. The BH6's three DIMM sockets also provide enough main memory capacity for business computing, 3D gaming, multimedia applications and CAD/CAM applications as well.
Soft
MenuTMII
BIT's
award
winning
patented
Soft
MenuTM
CPU
configuration
just
got
better
with
the
introduction
of
Soft
MenuTMII.
ABIT's
R&D
teams
worked
hard
and
have
made
some
new
technological
breakthroughs
with
the
introduction
of
Soft
MenuTMII.
The
BH6
implements
Soft
MenuTMII
technology
that
eliminates
all
jumpers
on
the
mainboard
that
set
CPU
parameters,
allowing
end-users
to
easily
and
correctly
install
or
upgrade
their
own
Pentium
II
processor
with
MMXTM
technology.
Normally
certain
features
cannot
be
changed
in
the
BIOS
of
other
jumperless
motherboards,
but
ABIT
has
developed
a
way
to
configure
a
greater
range
of
features
with
their
new
Soft
MenuTMII.
Those
of
you
familiar
with
our
Soft
MenuTM
original
will
notice
that
Soft
MenuTMII
has
a
few
other
improvements
as
well.
It
also
offers
a
more
enhanced
boot
up
speed
over
the
Soft
MenuTM
original
and
saves
your
CPU
configuration
in
a
new
manner
that
by-passes
the
default
settings,
saving
them
into
the
new
Soft
MenuTMII
circuitry
so
that
you
do
not
have
to
reenter
the
values
again.
The
BH6
BIOS
supports
an
external
clock
of
66/75/83/100/112/133Mhz,
a
multiplier
factor
of
2/2.5/3/3.5/4/4.5/5
and
a
core
voltage
range
of
1.30
up
to
2.30
for
the
Pentium®
II
333~400MHz
CPUs
and
up
to
3.2
volts
when
using
a
Pentium
®II
233MHz
~
300MHz
CPU.
The
voltages
are
changeable
in
upwards
range
of
15%
within
0.05
steps,
for
example,
2.00,
2.05,
2.10,
2.15.
SoftMenuTMII
also
has
the
feature
called
Real
Power
Overclocking.
There
are
some
CPUs
where
the
Multiplier
factor
was
locked
in
order
to
limit
the
overclocking
action
by
the
end-user.
ABIT
has
solved
this
problem-by
using
the
selection
item��
SEL
100/66#Signal.
The
Power
user
may
choose
between
��High��
and
��Low��
to
unlock
the
multiplier
factor
for
overclocking
the
CPU
frequency
and
achieve
the
best
CPU
performance
with
limited
cost.
Retain
Yourself
Starting
with
the
Retention
Module
for
the
BH6,
ABIT
has
developed
and
implemented
many
features
on
the
BH6
for
maximum
quality
and
usability.
For
the
convenience
of
all
customers,
ABIT
provides
the
Retention
Module,
a
solution
for
both
Pentium®II,
(SECC)
and
Celeron
(SEP)
Modules.
Other
design
features
include:
a)
ReNew
Fuse
which
is
a
special
selection
of
Polyfuse
components
to
avoid
sudden
heavy
power
currency
input
through
input
devices
causeing
Mainboard

b)
Voltage
security-which
consists
of
6
pieces
of
LESR
(low
equivalent
serial
resistor)
to
lower
high
resistor
values
and
stabilize
the
CPU
Vcore
voltage
which
can
protect
the
CPU
and
system
from
suddenly
shutting
down.
c)
Clock
Generator-which
uses
the
