Introduction
Thank you for choosing the RX480-A motherboard. This motherboard is a high perfor-
mance, enhanced function motherboard that supports Socket 939 AMD Sempron/Athlon
64/Athlon 64 FX and CPUs for high-end business or personal desktop markets.
The motherboard incorporates the RX480 Northbridge (NB) and SB400 Southbridge (SB)
chipsets. The Northbridge supports the HyperTransport (HT) interface speeds up to
2000MT/s data rate. It supports four DDR Sockets with up to maximum memory size of
4GB. One PCI Express x16 slot, intended for Graphics Interface, is fully compliant to the
PCI Express Base Specification revision 1.0a.
The SB400 Southbridge supports three PCI slots which are PCI 2.3 compliant. In addition,
two PCI Express x1 slots are supported, fully compliant to the PCI Express Base Specifica-
tion, Revision 1.0a. It implements an EHCI compliant interface that provides 480Mb/s
bandwidth for eight USB 2.0 ports (rear panel x 4, header x 4). Two onboard IDE connectors
supports 4 IDE devices in UDMA 133/100/66/33 modes. The Southbridge integrates a Serial
ATA host controller that is SATA v1.0 compliant, supporting four SATA ports with maxi-
mum transfer rate up to 150 MB/s each.
The RX480-A motherboard is equipped with advanced full set of I/O ports in the rear panel,
including PS/2 mouse and keyboard connectors, COM1, LPT1, four USB ports, one op-
tional LAN port, and audio jacks for microphone, line-in and 8-ch line out.
