**82C596/597     PTMAWB Pentium Adaptive Write-back (Cobra)       c:93
***Notes::...
***Info:
The  OPTi design  team  is  proud to  present  the  64-bit Pentium  AT
solution with  VESA Local bus. As  always, the product emphasis  is on
value. The OPTi  PTMAWB is crafted to provide  the highest performance
but most cost effective  system solution without compromising quality,
compatibility or reliability.

The  PTMAWB is a  top-of-the-line solution  for the  server/power user
market. Flexibility of design without using the most expensive support
parts has  been given  key importance. This  ensures the  total system
cost to be  at the high-end 486 level - yet  with the high-end Pentium
performance.

The PTMAWB has  the state-of-the-art AWB cache controller  for up to 2
MB  of Adaptive  Write-back cache  support. The  DRAM  controller also
supports posted writes for faster performance on write cycles.

The  OPTi  PTMAWB-V  provides  PC  servers  and  PC  power  users  the
horsepower of the 64-bit Pentium at 60 MHz and 66 MHz-immediately.

**82C822         PCIB (VLB-to-PCI bridge)                         c:94
***Notes:
OPTi 82C822 is a VLB-to-PCI bridge compatible with many chipsets.

From some Usenet posting (lost source sorry):

"Opti never  had a 486 PCI  chipset. All mainboards  with the chipsets
82C802,   82C895,    82C571,   82C596   (aka    "Premium")   use   the
VLB-->PCI-bridge  "chipset"  82C822  for  the  implementation  of  PCI
functionality.

Apparently this  chipset will only  allow 1 32-bit burst  transfer per
bus arbitration  cycle, which limits  throughput to 8 MB/s  instead of
(the maximum ideal transfer rate of) 132 MB/s."
