sion. Other on-board features include an FDD, LPT, 4 USBs, and 2 serial
ports. PCI-6871 supports AC97 audio with the addition of the optional
PCM-231A-00A1 audio module. This product uses a VIA VT8606
"TwisterT" chip with Integrated Savage4 2D/3D/Video Accelerator and
supports 4X AGP VGA/LCD interface and up to 32 MB frame buffer
using system memory. The PCI-6871 supports one 10/100Mbps Ethernet
connection with an onboard RJ-45 connector, and is effective for use as a
