**AMD 640/645     (Pentium Based on VIA VT82C590) [some info]      c97
640=VT82C595
645=VT82C586B

The  Shuttle  HOT-603 is  the  only  known  motherboard with  the  640
chipset.

There may be another version known  as the 640AGP with AGP support. It
is difficult to determine if this ever existed.

Various sources  state the  AMD 640  is the same  as the  VIA VT82C590
(VP2) chip set. However no first-hand source (datasheet, etc) has been
found. YMMV

Chips:         
[82443ZX] (PAC) [82371EB] (PIIX4E)
CPUs:          Single P-II/Celeron
DRAM Types:    EDO SDRAM
Mem Rows:      4
DRAM Density:  16Mbit 64Mbit
Max Mem:       256MB
ECC/Parity:    No
AGP speed:     1x 2x
Bus Speed:     66 100 133*1
PCI Clock/Bus: 1/2 1/3 1/4*1 PCI 2.1

440ZX-66 is the same but only has  bus speed of 66 MHz and PCI divisor
or 1/2.

>*1 Exists  but unofficially. There is  no 1/2 divider  for AGP, 
    making AGP unstable in a 133MHz bus system. In this config. the 
    system is overclocked.
