Processor The mainboard uses an AMD 462-pin Socket A that has the
following features:
•
Supports 200/266/333 MHz frontside bus (FSB)
•
Accommodates AMD Duron, Athlon, and Athlon XP
processors
Note: It is recommended that you use AMD Athlon XP
Chipset The chipset on SV400 includes the KT400 Northbridge and
VT8235 Southbridge which are based on an innovative and
scalable architecture with proven reliability and performance. A
few of the chipset's advanced features are:
•
Support independent address, data, and snoop interfaces
•
200/166/133/100 MHz DDR (Double Data Rate) transfer
on Athlon CPU address and data buses
•
Support 533 MHz 8x, 266 MHz 4x, and 133 MHz 2x
transfer modes for Ad and SBA signaling
•
AGP v3.0 compliant with 8x transfer mode
•
Supports 66 MHz V-Link Host interface with peak
bandwidth of 533 MB/sec
•
DRAM interface synchronous with host CPU
(166/133/100 MHz) for most flexible configuration
•
Integrated Fast Ethernet Controller with 1/10/100 Mbit
capability
•
Dual channel UltraDMA-33/66/100/133 master mode
EIDE controller
•
Transfer rate up to 133MB/sec to cover PIO mode 4,
multi-word DMA mode 2 drivers, and UltraDMA-33
interface
•
USB v2.0 and Enhanced Host Controller Interface (EHCI)
v1.0 compatible
•
Supports both ACPI (Advanced Configuration and Power
Interface) and legacy (APM) power management
Additional features include support for six USB ports, an AC 97
link for audio and modem, hardware monitoring, and
ACPI/OnNow power management.
•
Supports DDR up to 200/266/333/400 (enhanced) MHz
Memory
DDR SDRAM memory module
•
Accommodates three unbuffered 2.5V 184-pin slots
•
Each slot supports up to 1 GB with a total maximum
capacity of 3 GB
Graphics The SV400 includes an AGP slot that provides eight times the
bandwidth of the original AGP specification. The AGP 3.0
(8xAGP) offers a significant increase in performance along
with feature enhancements to AGP2.0. This interface
represents the natural evolution from the existing AGP to meet
the ever-increasing demands placed on the graphic interfaces
within the workstation and desktop environments.
or higher level CPU to make sure that the
"Thermal Diode" function will work properly.
