The G586SPB AIO, equipped with a 321-pin Zero Insertion Force (ZIF)
CPU socket, is a Pentium processor-class system board supporting In-
tel Pentium CPUs running at 75MHz, 90MHz, 100MHz, 120MHz,
133MHz, 150MHz, 166MHz and 200MHz frequencies. The G586SPB
AIO also supports future Pentium OverDrive processors and AMD-K5
PR75/PR90/PR100 CPUs.
The G586SPB AIO can support 8MB to 256MB of system memory. It is
equipped with 4 SIMM sockets using EDO or fast page mode x32
DRAM. This system board also supports pipeline burst SRAM and pro-
vides easy cache upgrades using a 256KB cache module.
The G586SPB AIO comes with a built-in video accelerator. The VGA
controller can display graphic resolutions up to 1024x768, 256 colors
with 1MB DRAM and up to 1280x1024, 256 colors with 2MB DRAM.
The built-in VGA function also supports VESA DDC1 and DDC2B Plug
and Play monitors.
The G586SPB AIO design is based on the Peripheral Component Inter-
connect (PCI) local bus and Industry Standard Architecture (ISA) stan-
dards. It is equipped with 3 dedicated PCI slots and 4 dedicated 16-bit
ISA slots.
The G586SPB AIO board has two bus master PCI IDE connectors. Bus
mastering reduces CPU use during disk transfer. This system board is
also equipped with two NS16C550A-compatible serial ports, an SPP/
ECP/EPP parallel port, a floppy disk drive controller, one PS/2 mouse
port, one PS/2 or AT keyboard connector and one IrDA connector for
wireless connectivity between your computer and peripheral devices.
