Refers to the Intel 430 family of
Pentium chipsets. The first in family, the 430FX, is called the
Triton; the enhanced 430 HX is called
Triton 2. The Triton chipset supports the
PCI bus and was the first
x86 chip to use
EDO DRAM. The Triton 2 is one of the fastest Pentium chipsets, with support for multiple CPUs, pipelined burst
SRAM cache,
memory error checking and correction (ECC), 512 MB of memory, and caching of RAM over 64 MB. The 430VX, a third member of the family, supports
USB and uses
SDRAM. The VX model is sometimes called
Triton-2 or
Triton-3.
