so today's retro edition of my unboxing
lus Tech tips is going to be featuring two things first a company that no
longer exists soyo motherboard and
second my little brother who was already featured on a fan unboxing uh much to
the uh bewilderment of my normal
audience so first of all um Asher I
would like you to tell me what this is designed for this is designed for
running a computer it is it is designed
for Microsoft Windows XP okay awesome
and it is the home of what the dragon home of the Dragon this could very well
be where they invented the digital Dragon the digital Dragon okay so on the
back there is no information whatsoever awesome soil motherboards
yeah on the back there's nothing on the side there's nothing on the front
there's nothing there's a little star oh wait here we found something oh okay so
please tell me uh what what okay so we got Pentium 3s um AGP supports three SD
RAM um oo nice yeah yeah 1.5 gab maximum
1.5 gigs Max so that's that's more like
a minimum these days so let's get this open so the first thing we will find is
a warning please read the warning out for me brosi warning comes with two pictures
this motherboard does not support older type of Celeron processors I'm not sure
the exist anymore 300 a
5333 MHz don't know what that means ppga
package type a bunch of letters and numbers please do not install older type
of Sal processor on this motherboard it
might damage your Celeron Processor or
motherboard that's a damaged one that's a not damaged one is what I'm guessing
Okay so then inside we will find some accessories we will find two IDE cables
one of which is an ad0 pin and one of which is not an IDE cable but rather a
floppy cable my bad they're gray I
thought those are belts they are not belts I know you you never were the
bright one in the family were you so we've got a soyo motherboard CD manual
and driver's disc including promagic
image it and dpu whatever those are normally I would recommend you go to the
manufacturer's website um to download the latest drivers but I'm going to go
ahead and Venture a guess that the soyo website no longer exists
not sure the manufacturer exists anymore either no they don't I already said that
okay this is the quick start guide where you will find um how to quickly start
although yeah this motherboard probably doesn't even start anymore in fact I
think it even had a label on it that it's dead mind you it smells new
actually no I think I think this board is brand spanking new well like new
never used so anyway why don't we talk a little bit about the features of this
board first of all we have a socket 370 supporting the latest Intel Celeron and
Pentium 3 CPUs then we
have a uh 3 SD RAM slot supporting a
maximum of 1.5 gigs so that means you could load this baby up with three 512
megabyte uh did I say dims because those were Sims back then uh my bad then we
have a chipset heat sink along with 20
pin power Advanced tech 20 pin power to
deliver the best power power to your AGP video card and your 370 CPU okay also
featured on this motherboard is two IDE
channels uh maybe supporting raid probably not actually and then uh we
have five PCI slots and Asher Pop Quiz
do you know what these slots are indeed I do they are video card insert slots
that's my wild guess right that was a good try but this is the video card slot
dang yeah no these are Isa slots these are pretty ancient at this point then we
have a floppy connector and let's see what Advanced High TE Connectivity oh
USB check that out yo okay let's see
what kind of high-tech connectivity we will find on the back okay so uh we
first of all we've got support for a PS2 keyboard and mouse two whole USB ports
on the back two serial ports so that'll be great if you're running like serial
peripherals a par parallel port if you can actually dig up a parallel printer
you could run that and then we have support for ac97 audio as well as a
joystick Port so thank you for checking out our joint unboxing of the um oh this
is terrific I love this of the soyo home of the Dragon Sy
