VIA Technologies will begin small-volume deliveries of its third 800MHz FSB (front-side bus) Pentium 4 (P4) chipset – the PT890 – at the end of this month, according to local motherboard makers. Several board makers have received engineering samples of the PT890 from VIA and expect to complete circuit design at month-end.
The core logic chipset vendor generated NT$1.54 billion in revenues in December, down 7% from the previous month. VIA has two other 800MHz FSB P4 chipsets – the PT800 and PT880 – on offer.
