The Intel
Server Board SE7500WV2 includes an embedded video subsystem that connects to the 32-bit, 33-MHz PCI
bus that is controlled by the ICH3 I/O controller hub. This subsystem consists of an integrated ATI RAGE* XL PCI
graphics accelerator with 8 MB of 7ns video SDRAM in the form of one 2M x 32 SDRAM chip and requisite support
circuitry. The embedded video subsystem supports all standard IBM VGA modes.
The ATI RAGE XL chip contains:
•
SVGA video controller
•
Clock generator
•
2D and 3D engine
•
RAMDAC (random access memory digital-to-analog converter)
The video subsystem supports modes up to 1600 x 1200 resolution under 2D, and up to 1024 x 768 resolution under 3D.
Both CRT and analog LCD monitors are supported up to 100 Hz vertical refresh rate through an onboard 15-pin VGA
connector.
When the SE7500WV2 is integrated into either the Intel SR2300 or SR1300 chassis, the SE7500WV2 can provide video
to either the rear I/O panel (default) or to the front panel through the 100-pin floppy/FP/IDE connector.
The two video ports are mutually exclusive: when a monitor is plugged into the front panel video connector, the video
signal is routed to the front panel connector and the rear connector is disabled.
When an add-in video adapter is installed in any of the PCI slots the video subsystem is automatically disabled. The
video subsystem may also be manually enabled or disabled through the BIOS setup menu.
