DFI (Diamond Flower Industries) announces new Athlon 4 layer Athlon motherboard using AMD 750 chipset. This should lower prices as 4 layer is cheaper to make than 6 layer? aceshardware.com "DFI's New Athlon Motherboard (AMD) Posted By Brian Neal Monday, December 13, 1999 - 3:36:18 PM FullOn3D has a press release up from DFI regarding their new Athlon motherboard. It's always good news to see more of these: DFI AK70 in ATX form factor is based on AMD 750 chipsets for all-speed, full-line Athlon CPUs. This model is equipped with three DIMM sockets, which enable the main memory capacity get to 768MB. Besides, model AK70 features one AGP slot, five PCI slots and the ATA/66 hard disk. All these complete the requirements of system expandability. [...] The secret to the reasonable price offered by AK70 is the in-built four-layer PC board instead of six. This intelligent design, differently from other manufacturers', impressively reduces the purchasing costs for power users. DFI AK70 is indeed the “best-performance-affordable-price” K7 motherboard a high-end consumer can find in market nowadays. " Might as well throw in these SPEC scores for my buddy Elmer. aceshardware.com ..................PIII-733...Athlon-800 SPECfp_base95......18.0 .......25.1 SPECint_base95.....31.5........35.0
