[edit] Comparison of ATI Northbridge Chipsets for AMD Processors

Codename Model Year Processors Supported Fabrication process (nm) Max HT Freq (Mhz) Crossfire Enabled Features Southbridge
RS480* Radeon Xpress 200 2004 Athlon 64, Athlon 64 FX, Athlon 64 X2, Sempron 1000 Yes

RS480 uses a HT link to connect with its southbridge, therefore any HT capable southbridge can be used (such as ULI 1785).
