Introduction

Chapter 1 Specification

This mainboard features an integration of the powerful AMD proces-

sors Athlon/Athlon XP/Duron and the North Bridge nVIDIA nFORCE2

IGP plus South Bridge nFORCE2 MCP-T, with which the whole system

performance supports 400/333/266/200MHz system bus.

nVIDIA nFORCE2 IGP plus nFORCE2 MCP-T supports on-board AMD

processors to implement the 400/333/266/200 MHz Front Side Bus, the

AGP 8X/4X interface, the integrated GeForce4 MX Graphics port, the

LPC Super I/O, the Dual Channel DDR 333/266 MHz SDRAM, the au-

dio processing unit (APU) with Dolby Digital Interactive Content Encoder,

the 6-channel AC’97 Audio interface, the USB 2.0 interface, the IEEE

1394 interface and ATA 133/100/66 data transfer rate. This chapter is

to introduce to users every advanced function of this high performance

integration.
