  • Page 3: Introduction

    Introduction 1. INTRODUCTION 1.1. PREFACE Welcome to use the 6BXM motherboard. It is a Pentium II / Celeron Processor based PC / AT compatible system with AGP/ PCI / ISA Bus, and has been designed to be the fastest PC / AT system. There are some new features allow you to operate the system with just the performance you want.

  • Page 4: Performance List

    6BXM 1.3. PERFORMANCE LIST The following performance data list is the testing results of some popular benchmark testing programs. These data are just referred by users, and there is no responsibility for different testing data values gotten by users. (The different Hardware & Software configuration will result in different benchmark testing results.)

  • Page 8: What Is Agp

    6BXM 1.6 What is AGP The Accelerated Graphics Port (AGP) is a new port on the Host-To-PCI bridge device that supports an AGP port. The main purpose of the AGP port is to provide fast access to system memory. The AGP port can be used either as fast PCI port (32-bits at 66MHz vs. 32-bits at 33MHz) or as an AGP port which supports 2x data-rate, a read queue, and side band addressing.

  • Page 18: Cpu Speed Setup

    6BXM 3.5. CPU SPEED SETUP The default system bus speed is 66 / 100MHz. The user can change the DIP SWITCH (SW2) selection to set up the CPU speed for 233 - 633MHz processor. The CPU speed must match with the frequency RATIO. It will cause system hanging up if the frequency RATIO is higher than CPU's.

  • Page 19: Cmos Rtc & Isa Cfg Cmos Sram

    Hardware Installation 3.6. CMOS RTC & ISA CFG CMOS SRAM The mainboard contains RTC & CMOS SRAM on board. They have a power supply from external battery to keep the DATA inviolate & effective. The RTC is a REAL-TIME CLOCK device, which provides the DATE & TIME to system. The CMOS SRAM is used for keeping the information of system configuration, so the system can automatically boot OS every time.
