Welcome

Congratulations on purchasing the MS8127C mainboard. The

MS8127C is a ATX mainboard that uses a 4-layer printed circuit

board and measures 305 mm x 220 mm. The mainboard has a

Socket 462 to accommodate AMD Athlon (K7) processors that

support frontside bus (FSB) speeds up to 200 MHz. The

MS8127C is installed with the VT8363 (NB)/ VT82C686A (SB)

chipset and built-in 3D sound that features the AC 97 audio

codec.

The mainboard delivers high-level performance with a 4xAGP

(Accelerated Graphics Port) slot and two PCI Bus Master Ultra

DMA (UDMA) ports that support up to four ATAPI (AT Attachment

Packet Interface) devices. The PCI IDE also supports PIO Mode 3

and 4, UDMA33/66 IDE, and an ATAPI CD-ROM.

The mainboard accommodates PC 100/133 SDRAM

(Synchronous DRAM) or VCM (Virtual Channel Memory) up to

1.5 GB using three 3.3V unbuffered DIMM modules. The

mainboard attains the highest reliability by supporting ECC

(Error Checking and Correction) memory protection, enabling

the mainboard to achieve superior data integrity and fault-

tolerance with respect to memory errors while running

applications.

Other features include a built-in PCI 3D sound system that supports

the AC 97 audio codec. The mainboard has a full set of I/O ports,

such as dual channel PCI EIDE interfaces, a floppy controller, two

FIFO serial port connectors, an EPP/ECP-capable bi-directional

parallel port connector, a dual USB (Universal Serial Bus)

connector, and PS/2 keyboard and mouse connectors.

One AGP slot, five PCI local bus slots and an audio modem riser

(AMR) slot provide expandability for add-on peripheral cards.

This chapter contains the following information:

!Checklist comprises a list of the standard and optional

components that are shipped with this mainboard

!Recommendations lists some Do’s and Don’ts from the

manufacturer to help ensure reliability and performance

from this product

!Features highlights the functions and components that

make this one of the best value mainboards on the

market

Recommendations

This mainboard automatically determines the CPU clock

frequency and system bus frequency for the kind of processor

you install. You may be able to change these automatic settings

by making changes to the settings in the system Setup Utility.

We strongly recommend that you do not overclock the

mainboard to run processors or other components faster than

their rated speed.

Warning: Overclocking components can adversely affect the

reliability of the system and introduce errors into your system.

Overclocking can permanently damage the mainboard by generating

excess heat in components that are run beyond the rated limits.

Components on this mainboard can be damaged by discharges

of static electricity. Handle the board carefully holding it by the

edges. Don’t flex or stress the circuit board. Keep the board in

its static-proof packing until you are ready to install it. Follow the

static guidelines given at the beginning of Chapter 2.

Features

The key features of this mainboard are the wide range of

processors that can be installed, and the high level of integration,

which includes built-in audio, video, and communications.

High-end Processors

Functioning as a platform for a high-end PC, the MS8127C

features a Socket 462 accommodating AMD Athlon processors

that support 64/256 KB L2 OnChip cache, and 100/200 MHz

hostbus/core speed.

The MS8127C supports 200 MHz frontside bus (FSB).

VIA Chipset

This board features the VT8363 chipset from VIA. The VT8363

chipset is designed for high-end desktops and workstations and

provides 2-way multiprocessing (SMP), ATA-66, 4xAGP and

DRAM support.

The VT82C686A I/O chip makes a direct connection between

the graphics system, the IDE controller, and the PCI bus. It uses

Accelerated Hub Architecture to effectively double the bandwidth

between these components enabling more lifelike audio and

video. The VT82C686A I/O chip includes an integrated audio

codec controller (AC 97) that lets the processor more effectively

decode sound generated by the integrated audio system or the

integrated fax/modem.

Inexpensive Memory

The board has three DIMM sockets for the installation of 168-pin,

3.3V non-buffered DIMM memory modules. The DIMM memory

modules use SDRAM memory chips. The MS8127C mainboard

supports a memory bus of 100/133 MHz.

Each installed memory module can be populated with from 32

MB to 512 MB of memory; a maximum of 1.5 GB memorycan

be installed. The integrated video system uses shared memory

architecture, so you must reserve some of the installed memory

as video memory using the system BIOS. You must install at

least one module, but it makes no difference which slot you use

to install the module.

4xAGP Graphics Adapter Slot

The mainboard includes an 4xAGP slot that provides four times

the bandwidth of the original AGP specification. AGP technology

provides a direct connection between the graphics sub-system

and the processor so that the graphics do not have to compete

for processor time with other devices on the PCI bus. The AGP

design allows the graphics controller to use part of the main

memory when it needs it, for example, to handle the very large

texture maps required by virtual reality and 3D video games and

applications.

AC 97 Audio codec

The AC 97 Audio codec is compliant with the AC 97 2.1

specification, and supports 18-bit ADC (Analog Digital Converter)

and DAC (Digital Analog Converter) resolution as well as 18-bit

stereo full-duplex codec with independent and variable sampling

rates. Further features include support for four analog line-level

stereo inputs.

Expansion Options

The MS8127C mainboard is pre-installed with features such as

audio that normally require add-in cards. The five 32-bit PCI

slots and the AMR slot provide plenty of expansion potential.

The MS8127C PCI slots support UDMA 33/66 bus mastering.
