Video Controller

The system board uses an ATI RAGE XL PCI graphics accelerator with 8 MB of video
SDRAM. The embedded SVGA video subsystem supports:
!
Resolutions up to 1600 x 1200 under 2D and 1024 x 768 under 3D
!
CRT and LCD monitors up to 100 Hz vertical refresh rate.
The system board supports disabling of the onboard video through the BIOS setup
menu or when a plug in video card is installed in any of the PCI slots.

SCSI Controller

The system board includes an embedded Adaptec AIC7899W dual function SCSI
controller. The AIC7899W provides Ultra-160 SCSI interfaces as two independent PCI
functions. As implemented on the system board, the interface attaches to an Ultra-160
SCSI backplane that supports up to seven Ultra-160 SCA drives.

Network Controller

The system board uses a dual-channel Intel® 82546EB Gigabit Ethernet Controller and
supports 10Base-T/100Base-TX/1000Base-T network subsystems.
The 82546EB controller supports the following features:
!
64-bit, 100 MHz PCI-X interface
!
Integrated IEEE 802.3 10Base-T, 100Base-TX, and 1000Base-T compatible
PHY
!
IEEE 820.3u auto-negotiation support
!
Chained memory structure similar to the 82557, 82558, 82559 and 82596
!
Full duplex support at 10 Mbps, 100 Mbps, and 1000 Mbps operation
!
Low power +3.3 V devices.
On the system board, NIC1 can be used as both a network interface and server
management interface.
