Onboard Cache
Upgradeable Cache Module
256KB
upgradeable with a 256KB cache module for a
maximum of 512KB cache
Warning:
We highly recommend that you use T2BSM32-256 cache modules. If
you are using cache modules other than the ones recommended above,
make sure your cache module(s) meets the Intel COAST 2.x specifica-
tion. Severe damage might occur on the cache module or system board
if you insert modules other than those specified above.
Installing the Cache Module
Locate the 160-pin cache module slot on the system board (SSM1).
See page 12 for the location. Position the cache module above the slot.
Make sure pin 1 of the cache module is aligned with pin 1 of the slot.
Carefully slide the module into the slot. Press firmly on the top of it to
seat it properly.
Cache Memory
The G586VSY AIO system board can support 256KB or 512KB pipeline
burst, direct map write-back cache SRAM. Your system board may
come with 256KB or 512KB cache mounted onboard. The 160-pin
cache module slot lets you upgrade your cache memory by installing a
256KB cache module.
Note:
You do not need to set any jumpers or modify the Award BIOS Setup
utility when you install the cache module.
If your system board comes with 256KB cache at locations U2 and U6,
you can upgrade your cache memory to 512KB by installing a 256KB
cache module in the cache module slot. Please refer to page 12 for the
locations of the cache module slot (SSM1).
