We are proud to present you the new I4-3 motherboard, which is a high quality,
high performance, and enhanced platform that follows ATX format to OEMs
and system integrators looking for solutions that offer the utmost features
without sacrificing design flexibility.
With a measurement of 165 x 267 mm, this motherboard is based on the ATX
form factor featuring the Intel Springdale-G (865G) Northbridge and ICH5
82801EB Southbridge chipsets. Springdale is a Graphics Memory Controller
Hub (GMCH) designed for use with a mPGA478 processor. The component
provides the CPU interface, DDR interface, AGP interface, Hub Interface, CSA
Interface and integrated graphics with display interfaces. Its role in a system is
to provide high performance integrated graphics and manage the flow of in-
formation between its six interfaces. This includes arbitrating between the six
interfaces when each initiates an operation.
The system memory supports two 64-bit wide DDR data channel, supporting
512/256/128/64Mb SDRAM technology. The maximum memory size is 4GB
capability. This motherboard provides the standard 400/533/800 MHz CPU
front side bus with extra capability.
