Overview

The S1846 (S1846S and S1846SLA) Tsunami ATX is a quality, high perfor-
mance motherboard designed for Intel Pentium II microprocessors. This
motherboard utilizes the Intel 440BX AGPset and can support CPU speeds of
233MHz through 450MHz, and host bus speeds of 66MHz to 100MHz.
The S1846 motherboard, with built-in AGP slot, provides high performance
capabilities that are ideal for a wide range of demanding applications such as
CAD, CAM, CAE, desktop publishing, 3D animation, and video production.
This integrated system board achieves high reliability with numerous features
and yet is small enough to be supported in an ATX form factor. Some of the
features included are onboard dual channel PCI PIO, BUS Master IDE and
UltraDMA/33, onboard floppy controller, and onboard high speed I/O.
Flexibility and expandability have been designed into the Tsunami ATX. With
I/O and drive controller support built onboard, the one AGP slot, five PCI and
two ISA slots (one shared, seven usable) are free for numerous add-on
expansion cards.
