Server ATX Board with Slot 1
The FIC VL-601 is an ATX server motherboard built around the Intel 440LX chipset. It accepts Slot 1 processors such as Pentium II and Celeron models. Three 168-pin DIMM sockets support up to 384 MB of SDRAM memory. The board provides standard ATX mounting for server chassis.
For legacy maintenance not new builds
This board suits technicians maintaining existing Slot 1 infrastructure or specialised industrial systems that still require the 440LX platform. Builders starting fresh projects should look elsewhere because the Slot 1 interface and SDRAM technology are obsolete for modern workloads. The ATA-33 storage interface also limits drive performance compared to current standards.
Ships without accessories or cables
The manufacturer highlights that no accessories are included with the motherboard. Installers must source their own 40-pin IDC cables for the two ATA-33 connectors and any required mounting hardware. Expansion cards for the five PCI slots, two ISA slots and single AGP slot must also be supplied separately.

Questions about this item
Does the board need a Slot-1 Pentium II or Celeron and 168-pin SDRAM DIMMs to post?
Yes, the Slot-1 socket accepts Pentium II or Celeron CPUs and the three DIMM sockets take 168-pin SDRAM modules up to 384 MB total.
Can I still use my ISA expansion cards with the five PCI slots and AGP slot present?
Two 16-bit ISA slots remain on the board so legacy ISA cards can coexist with the five PCI slots and the single AGP slot.
How do I confirm the ATA-33 interfaces are active after assembly?
Connect drives to the two 40-pin IDC connectors, enter BIOS and verify both channels detect the attached devices.
