Central Processing Unit
This motherboard is designed to operate with a single Intel

Celeron

, Pentium
®
II, or
Pentium
®
III processor. The processor’s VID pins automatically program the voltage
regulator on the motherboard to the required processor voltage. In addition, the front
side bus speed (100 MHz and 66 MHz) is automatically selected.
The Inte

l processors include the following features:
• Intel's highest performance processor, combining the power of the Intel

Pentium
®
III
processor with the capabilities of MMX™ technology and new Katmai instructions.
• Takes advantage of the same high-performance Dual Independent Bus architecture
used in the Intel

Pentium

III processor for high bandwidth and performance.
• Single Edge Contact (S.E.C.) cartridge packaging technology delivers high
performance processing and bus technology to mainstream systems. The cartridge
includes the processor core, second-level cache, thermal plate, and back cover.
• Optimized for 32-bit applications running on advanced operating systems.
• Data integrity and reliability features include system bus ECC, Fault Analysis,
Recovery, and Functional Redundancy Checking.
Memory
The motherboard has three dual inline memory module (DIMM) sockets. Synchronous
DRAM (SDRAM) can be installed in any of the 3 sockets. EDO DIMMs are not
supported. Minimum memory size is 16 MB; maximum memory size is 768 MB. Memory
size can vary between sockets.
The motherboard supports the following memory features:
• 168-pin DIMMs
• 100 or 66 MHz SDRAM
• Non-ECC (64-bit) and ECC (72-bit) memory
• 3.3 V memory only
• Single- or double-sided DIMMs in the following sizes:
DIMM Size Non-ECC Configuration ECC Configuration
16 MB 2 Mbit x 64 2 Mbit x 72
32 MB 4 Mbit x 64 4 Mbit x 72
64 MB 8 Mbit x 64 8 Mbit x 72
128 MB 16 Mbit x 64 16 Mbit x 72
256 MB 32 Mbit x 64 32 Mbit x 72
