Introducing the Motherboard

Introduction

Thank you for choosing the 915-M5 motherboard. This motherboard is a high perfor-

mance, enhanced function motherboard that supports LGA775 Socket for latest Intel

Pentium 4/Celeron processors for high-end business or personal desktop markets.

The motherboard may support 915GV Northbridge (NB) and ICH6 Southbridge (SB) chipsets.

The 915GV Northbridge on this motherboard supports a Front Side Bus (FSB) frequency of

800/533 MHz using a scalable FSB Vcc_CPU. The memory controller supports DDR

memory DIMM frequencies of 333MHz and 400 MHz. It supports four DDR Sockets with

up to maximum memory of 4 GB. DDR Maximum memory bandwidth of 3.2 GB/s in single-

channel mode and 6.4 GB/s in dual-channel mode is supported. One optional PCI Express

Lite slot is used to install an external PCI Express graphics card.

The ICH6 Southbridge on this motherboard supports three PCI slots which are PCI 2.3

compliant. It implements an EHCI compliant interface that provides 480Mb/s bandwidth

for eight USB 2.0 ports, integrates Azalia CODEC that features a 8-channel High Definition

audio output. One onboard IDE connector supports 2 IDE devices in ATA-100/66 mode.

The Southbridge integrates a Serial ATA host controller that is SATA v1.0 compliant,

supporting four SATA ports with maximum transfer rate up to 150 MB/s each.

The 915-M5 motherboard is equipped with advanced full set of I/O ports in the rear panel,

including PS/2 mouse and keyboard connectors, COM1, LPT, four USB ports, one VGA

port, one optional LAN port, one optional 1394 port, and audio jacks for microphone,

line-in, and 8-ch line-out.

Introducing the Motherboard

Feature

• Accommodates Intel P4/Celeron processors

• Supports a system bus (FSB) of 800/533MHz

• Supports “Hyper-Threading” technology CPU

“Hyper-Threading” technology enables the operating system into thinking it’s hooked

up to two processors, allowing two threads to be run in parallel, both on separate

“logical” processors within the same physical processor.

The 915-M5 uses a LGA775 type of Pentium 4 that carries the following features:

Processor

Chipset

• Supports PCI v2.3, 32-bit, 33/66MHz

• Supports fully with IEEE802.3, IEEE802.3u and IEEE802.3ab

The 915GV Northbridge (NB) and ICH6 Southbridge (SB) chipset are based on an

innovative and scalable architecture with proven reliability and performance.

• Supports 32-bit host bus addressing, allowing the CPU to

access the entire 4 GB of the memory address space.

• Has a 12-deep In-Order Queue to support up to twelve

outstanding piplined address requests on the host bus.

• Supports 256-Mb, 512-Mb and 1-Gb DDR/DDR2 technolo-

gies for x8 and x16 devices
