Recommendations
This mainboard automatically determines the CPU clock frequency and
system bus frequency for the kind of processor that you install. You may
be able to change these automatic settings by making changes to
jumpers on the mainboard, or changing 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.
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 advanced VIA VT82C6 4XA/
5 6B chipset, and the FC-PGA processor support so that you can install
a wide range of Intel Celeron or Cyrix Joshua processors. You can use
this board to develop a low-cost value system, with very comprehensive
features.
Support FC-PGA Intel Celeron/Cyrix Joshua
This mainboard supports two kinds of processors: FC-PGA Intel
Celerons, and Cyrix FC-PGA Joshua processors.
The new generation FC-PGA Celeron processors ship in the familiar
square plastic package, and they install in a Zero Insertion Force (ZIF)
socket called a Socket-370. The new Celeron processors are close to
Pentium-II performance because they include a level-2 cache memory of
128K. However, they operate over a 66 MHz system bus and they
currently ship at clock speeds of up to 533 MHz.
The new Cyrix FC-PGA Joshua processor also fits into the Socket-370.
The Joshua will include a 256K on-chip L2 cache, which runs at full
processor speed. It is the first non-Intel chip to plug into the same socket
as a Celeron.
Assemblers can choose the processor they need to meet performance or
price targets. You can configure the system for any of the supported
processor clock speeds using the BIOS setup utility. It is not necessary
to set switches or jumpers.
wo DIMM Memory Slots
The board has two DIMM slots for the installation of 168-pin, 3.3V
standard or registered SDRAM (Synchronous Dynamic Random Access
Memory) memory modules. The system supports memory that has built-
in error correction (EC), error correction code (ECC), or has no error
correction.
The DIMM slots support PC-100 (100 MHz) and PC-133 (133 MHz)
memory modules. You can install one or two modules. Each memory
module can hold a maximum capacity of 512 MB of standard SDRAM
chips so maximum memory capacity is 1 GB.

The VIA chipset on this board supports an asynchronous memory bus
architecture, and provides option of 66/100, 100/66, 100/133 or 133/100
MHz CPU and memory bus combinations.
Optimized Chipset
This board uses the VIA VT82C6 4X/5 6B chipset. The VT82C6 4X
forms the north bridge and supports system buses of 66, 100 and 133
MHz. It is AGP Rev. 1 compliant and supports 3.3v AGP devices
operating over a 66/133 MHz bus. The memory bus supports the fastest
access (X-1-1-1) for both 66, 100 and 133 MHz operation. The board is
compliant with PCI Rev.2.1 operating at 33 MHz Four PCI Bus masters
are supported.
The south bridge is provided by the VT82C5 6B. This chip supports
ACPI (Advanced Configuration and Power Interface) Rev 1.0, onboard
PCI IDE channels, USB ports, and a System Management Bus for OS
control and configuration of devices.
This new VIA chipset is designed to lower cost of performance, by
offering a cheap solution to using the latest range of processors, while
offering a clear upgrade path to the future generation of 133 MHz
processor types. This chipset makes the evolutionary move from PC100
to PC133, increasing the speed of the system and memory buses from
100 MHz to 133 MHz. The 133 MHz memory interface also opens the
door to a wide range of PC133 memory devices now on the market.
This latest VIA chipset supports asynchronous memory bus architecture,
and provides the option of 66/10, 100/66, 100/133 and 133/100 MHz
CPU and memory bus combinations. By supporting 66/100/133 CPU bus
and memory settings, this chipset is a highly scaleable choice for end
users building Celeron or Joshua level systems, and allows for a wide
range of cost-effective system design options.
Built-in PCI 3D Sound
The CMI 8738 is a single chip solution for PCI-bus 3D audio. The chip
provides Sound Blaster 16-bit-compatible audio, plus support for
Microsoft’s DirectSound 3D specification and Aureal A3D interface. The
sound ports include jacks for speakers, microphone and stereo in, and a
game/MIDI port. The audio system supports full duplex operation and
drivers are available for WIN 5/ 8/2000 and WIN NT 4.0. The audio
system can output sound to 4 loudspeakers and also supports SPDIF
24-bit digital sound input and output.
5
Optional Built-in Communications
The mainboard has an integrated fax/modem connector. As an option,
you can purchase a fax/modem extension bracket which connects the
line and telephone RJII sockets to the board. The fax/modem supports
the V. 0 protocol that allows transmissions at up to 56Kbps and is fully
compatible with earlier transmission and error correction standards. It
supports automatic fall back and caller ID.
Expansion Options
Although this is a micro-ATX board, it has a generous allocation of
expansions slots. One AGP slot is available for the installation of an
Accelerated Graphics Port graphics adapter. Three 32-bit PCI slots can
be used by PCI expansion cards. One legacy 8/16-bit ISA slot can be
used by ISA cards. The ISA slot is shared with one of the PCI slots. This
means that you can use either the ISA slot or the PCI slot, but you
cannot use both at the same time.
Integrated I/O
The board has a comprehensive set of integrated I/O ports. The I/O port
array features PS/2 keyboard and mouse ports, a parallel port, two USB
ports, two serial ports, a monitor port, a game/MIDI port, and three audio
jacks. Optionally, you can use the built-in mainboard header to add in an
infrared port. The mainboard has two PCI-IDE channels and a floppy
disk drive interface.
Hardware Monitoring
The mainboard is installed with an integrated hardware monitoring
system (GL525SM). Using this system and the monitoring software
supplied with the board, users and system administrators can monitor
critical parameters such as the CPU temperature, the fan speeds and so
on. Hardware monitoring helps maintain the system and reduce
maintenance costs and downtime.
Keyboard Power On Feature
Using the system BIOS setup program, you can configure the system to
turn on using a keyboard-typed password. A green keyboard is not
required.
