Introduction

Thank you for choosing the 915-M5GL 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/915GL Northbridge (NB) and ICH6 Southbridge (SB)

chipsets. The 915GV/915GL 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-M5GL 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 micro-

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

IntroducingtheMotherboard

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-M5GL uses a LGA775 type of Pentium 4 that carries the following features:

Processor

Chipset

Memory

• Accommodates four unbuffered DIMMs

• Up to 1 GB per DIMM with maximum memory size up to 4 GB

Graphics

• Supports core frequency of 333 MHz

• Supports 3D Setup, Render Engine, and 3D Graphics Enhancements

• Supports High Quality Texture Engine

• VideoDVD/PC-VCR

This motherboard may support either of the following LAN chipset:

• Supports PCI v2.3, 32-bit, 33/66MHz

• Supportsfully with IEEE802.3,IEEE802.3u and IEEE802.3ab

The 915GV/915GL 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(915GL supports DDR400 only)

• Provides an integrated graphics device delivering cost com-

petitive 3D, 2D and video capabilities.

• EnhancedDMAController, interrupt controller, and timer func-

tions

• Compliant with PCI 2.3 specificaiton

• Compliant with Serial ATA 1.0a specification

• Integrated USB 2.0 Host Controller supporting up to eight

USB 2.0 ports

• Integrated LAN controller

• Integrated IDE controller supports Ultra ATA100/66/33

915GV/915GL chipset can only support 256-Mb, 512-Mb and 1-Gb DDR

technologies for x8 and x16 device, NOT support 128-Mb DDR technol-

ogy. That is, 256 MB Double Side Memory Module & 128 MB Single Side

Memory Module are NOT support.
