Welcome to our Cebit Report Day 4 with news from AOpen, Foxconn, S3 and Soltek. Also in this report you will find all R520 and ATI's SLI info we could get.
Running on Intel'S i915GM mobile chipset the i915GMm-HFS boasts with these features:
Socket 479 for Intel Pentium M
400 / 533 MHz FSB
Support for DDR 300 / Dual Channel DDR2 533, up to 2GB
1x PCI-E x16, 1x PCI-E x1, 2x PCI
Integrated Intel Video Card

The AOpen i915Pa-PLF is based on Intel's 915P chipset:
Pentium 4 LGA 775 Socket
800 MHz FSB
Dual Channel DDR 400 Support
1x PCI-E x16, 2x PCI-E x1, 3x PCI
Integrated Intel Video Card
Gigabit Ethernet
4x SATA RAID

This board also offers AOpen's Power Master feature.
Power Master dynamically changes the CPU frontside bus based on the CPU's current draw (Amperes). When the CPU is idle, the FSB is reduced down to 100 MHz or less. When current is now increasing, the Power Master circuitry pumps the FSB back up in a fraction of a second - no lags are noticeable.
In very high-load situations the CPU FSB can be overclocked above 800 MHz as well.
