Features
and Specs
As
you can see, the 815E Pro 6337 is a very feature rich board.
Not everyone will agree with the integrated features, but
luckily these can be disabled. All motherboards that feature
the 815 chipset will have this type of integration since the
features exist in the ICH2 chip.
Also,
what's not listed here is the ability to adjust the front side
bus speed by 1MHz. This feature is great for any overclocker.
Plus, if you have PC100 RAM, you can select a 133MHz and still
have the memory clock at 100MHz. The same can be said for
PC133 and a 100MHz bus. You can still operate the memory at
133MHz even if you have a 100MHz bus. If you plan to use a
66MHz bus with PC66 memory, then you may be out of luck. The
815 automatically sets the memory speed to 100MHz, even if the
bus speed is at 66MHz.
