Introduction to New Features
AGP In-Line Memory Module(AIMM)
The Intel 815E chipset GMCH multiplexes the integrated graphics’ display cache interface
with the AGP signal interface. As a result, for a flexible mainboard that supports both
integrated graphics and add-in AGP video cards, display cache (for integrated graphics)
is needed to populate on a card sharing the universal AGP slot. The card is called an AGP
In-Line Memory Module(AIMM) .
When an AGP card is installed in the system, the Intel 815E GMCH internal graphics is
disabled and the AGP controller will be enabled. You can choose to populate the AGP slot
with AGP graphics card to utilitze the advanced features that your AGP card may provide
you, or with an AIMM card to enable the highest-possible internal graphics performance,
or with nothing to obtain the lowest-cost internal graphics solution.
Installation Steps:
1. Insert the AIMM card into the AGP slot. Please notice that the side of Display Cache is
towards those PCI slots.
2. Install the AGP retainer(Optional) on the AGP slot to ensure its fixity.

ESD(Electrostatic discharge) Protection:
This mainboard provides a very high level(up to 8kv) of protection for sensitive electronic
components that may be subjected to electrostatic discharge(ESD), especially for I/O
ports such as printer interface,VGA connectors, PS2 connectors or USB interfaces(any
components is optional ). The ESD components that complies with IED61000-4-2 (level 4)
and MIL STD883C-Method 3015-6 Class-3 are populated on the mainboard to prevent the
system from resetting or hanging by static electricity.
