Introduction of A353DMS/A353DM
Motherboard
Thank you for purchasing the A353DMS/A353DM motherboard which provide
extremely performance and meet future specification demand.
A353DMS/A353DM motherboard is adopted with advanced technologies to
deliver the extremely
performance for Intel Pentium 4 socket 478 processors.
A353DMS/A353DM motherboard
also
feature AGP 8X, Serial ATA RAID0, 1, USB 2.0 as well as 6-channel audio
which are based on
the
advanced ATI RADEON 9000 PRO IGP (RC350) chipset with FSB 800MHz processor and
DDR 400 MHz memory provide. Now we could know more details by reading the features of
motherboards below.
1-1 Feature of motherboard
A353DMS/A353DM
motherboard is designed for Intel Pentium 4 Socket-478 400MHz/
533MHz/800MHz Front Side Bus Frequency CPUs and the memory size expandable to 2.0GB.
By using ATI RADEON 9000 PRO IGP (RC350)/IXP 300 chipset which provides
800/533/400MHz Front Side Bus frequency and DDR266/333/400 SDRAM support as a obvious
further step to the next generation of 400/533/800MHz processors (
not support Willamate (0.18u)
processor
).
A353DMS/A353DM
motherboard also offers two ULTRA ATA
133
to provide
speedier HDD throughout that boosts overall system performance, and
IXP 300 integrated
Serial ATA controller chipset support two Serial ATA(150Mb/sec transfer rate) ports
support RAID 0, RAID 1 function.
Integrated AC’97 CODEC audio on system supports 6-channel speaker for 3D Surround Effect
which is fully compatible with Sound Blaster Pro
that gives you the best sound quality and
compatibility. AGP 8X slot enables more complex models and detailed textures with AGP 8X
graphic accelerators which creates richer and more lifelike virtual environments.
A353DMS/A353DM integrated RealTek RT8100C LAN controller chip supports 10/100Mbps
data transfer rate full duplex, half duplex operation(Option). USB control as well as capability of
expanding to 8 USB function ports support USB2.0/1.1 Devices.
Built-in hardware monitor function will monitor and protect your computer which is the special
design in hardware for protecting Pentium 4 CPU from burned, and will shutdown power supply
automatically when CPU is overheated or the CPU cooling fan is not working.
Minor adjustable DDR memory 2.5V Voltage, AGP 1.5V Voltage, and other
s
pecial functions
allows user to increase CPU Host clock step by step by setting up BIOS to approach over
clocking and increasing stability of the system.
SURROUNDVIEW provided the power and convenience of multi-adapter, multi-monitor
support for computers that use internal ATI integrated graphics processors (IGP) in combination
with an external ATI AGP graphics card, can support up to three, independent monitors.
