System Memory
System memory includes base (conventional) and extended
memory. Operating systems such as MS-DOS,
®
OS/ 2,
®
UNIX
®
Novell
®
NetWare,
®
NextStep,
®
and all application programs use
base memory. For better performance, OS/ 2, UNIX, NetWare,
and NextStep-as well as many MS-DOS applications-use
extended memory.
The system supports up to 128MB of RAM, which can be
installed using 72-pin, 70ns (nanosecond) or faster SIMMs.
Cache Memory
The Pentium microprocessor includes 16KB of internal cache.
The core chip set includes a cache controller that also supports
the 256KB of secondary cache memory installed on the main
system board.
Video
The system contains an onboard AT1 Mach32 extended super
VGA, local bus PCI controller that provides superior graphics
performance. The video subsystem is backward compatible
with MDA, CGA, Hercules@ Graphics, EGA, and VGA video
standards. The system supports non-interlaced as well as
interlaced monitors.
The computer comes with 1MB of VRAM providing resolutions
up to 1024 x 768 in 256 colors. You can install an additional
1MB of VRAM (2MB total) to provide a maximum resolution of
1280 x 1024 in 256 colors.
