Specs on the Soyo Dragon Motherboard

    Soyo 6VCA VIA Apollo 133A

    • The 6VCA was fitted with 1 AGP slot, 4 PCI slots and 1 PCI/ISA slot. Even though audio modem riser (AMR) devices weren't readily available yet, Soyo future-proofed the board with an AMR slot.

    Soyo 7VMA PM133

    • With similar hardware specs as the 6VCA, the 7VMA accepted Socket 370 processors, and included a feature called "Voice Doctor." This informed the user of incorrect hardware installation and serious system failures using the PC's speaker.

    Soyo K7VTA B KT133

    • The K7VTA B was a Socket A board that upgraded the IDE drive from ATA66 to ATA100, and was backward compatible. It had flexible settings for the front side bus, processor core voltage, and a multiplier adjustment.

    Soyo P4S Dragon Ultra Plus

    • The P4S brought DDR capability to the Intel Pentium 4 platform. A fast bus speed of 400MHz, support for up to 3GB of RAM, 6 PCI slots, an onboard RAID and RJ-45 Ethernet jack made this one of the most impressive boards of the year 2000.
