Features - PCchips M771LMR 1.x Manual

Features

The key features of this mainboard are the wide range of processors that
can be installed, and the high level of integration which includes built-in
audio, video, and communications.
Value-class Processors
As a platform for a value PC, the KOB 810e FSFx includes a socket-370
for the installation of the latest PGA and FC-PGA packaging processors
form Intel.
The PGA Celeron processors ship in the familiar square plastic package,
and they install in a Zero Insertion Force (ZIF) socket called Socket-370.
These PGA Celeron processors are close to Pentium II performance
because they include a level-2 cache memory of 128K. However, they
operate over a 66MHz system bus and they currently ship at clock
speeds of up to 533MHz. The PGA Celeron is the premiere choice for
an entry-level PC.
The FC-PGA Coppermine processor operates over a 66, 100 or 133
MHz system bus. The FC-PGA Coppermine ships with clock speeds
running from 500 MHz through to 750 MHz.
The KOB 810e FSFx supports 66MHz (PGA Celeron) as well as 100
MHz and 133 MHz front side buses (FC-PGA Coppermine).
Intel's 810e Chipset
This board features 810e chipsets from Intel. The 810e chipset is
designed to reduce the cost and improve the multimedia capability of
value PCs. The chipset features an integrated AGP (Accelerated
Graphics Port) graphics controller that is optimized to produce smooth
rendition of 2D and 3D video. Digital video output is supported so that
the system can display on a TV or a flat-panel display with digital video
input. The graphics controller improves performance and reduces cost
by dynamically allocating a segment of active memory as video memory.
The 810e I/O chip (82801 I/O Controller Hub) makes a direct connection
between the graphics system and the IDE controller and the PCI bus. It
uses Accelerated Hub Architecture to effectively double the bandwidth
between these components enabling more life like audio and video. It
includes an integrated Audio-Codec controller (AC97) that lets the
processor more effectively decode sound generated by the integrated
audio system or the integrated fax/modem. Finally, the 82802AB
