200 mm. The mainboard is design to support the mPGA Socket 478 Intel P4
Willamette/Northwood processors and the new Intel 845GL/845GV chipset.
With system bus speeds up to 400/533MHz, this mainboard represents the
most powerful desktop and cost-effective integrated solution available today.
The mainboard has an advanced full set of I/O ports, such as dual channel
IDE interfaces, a floppy controller, a high-speed serial port, a VGA port, an
EPP/ECP capable bi-directional parallel port connector, four USB (Universal
Serial Bus) connector, a PS/2 keyboard connector, mouse connector and au-

In addition to its excellent performance and stability, the mainboard is highly
suited for Internet and rich multimedia applications, including streaming video
download and are ideal for workstations and high-end home use.
