Hardware Specifications and
Supported Features
Overview
The AMI Olympus III motherboard utilizes the Intel 875P chipset. It offers support for
the latest Intel processors, including 800FSB, 8x AGP, Performance Acceleration
Technology (PAT), Hyper Threading technology, Dual-Channel DDR 400/333 SDRAM
memory with ECC Support, dual Parallel ATA, dual Serial ATA-150 RAID, Gigabit
LAN, and USB 2.0.
One of the biggest features of the Olympus III motherboard is its integration of the
onboard Gigabit Ethernet controller. The Gigabit Ethernet controller connects directly to
the Intel 875P chipset via a dedicated Communication Streaming Architecture (CSA) bus.
In the Olympus II motherboard, the onboard Ethernet controller connected to the south
bridge chipset via the PCI bus. The CSA bus is 64 bits wide, while the PCI bus is only 32
bits wide. Theoretically, the CSA bus has twice the bandwidth of a PCI bus. This
overcomes the bandwidth limitation found when running off of the PCI bus.
With all these features the Olympus III motherboard is the perfect fit for server
appliances such as, Network Attached Storage (NAS) and Mail/Web servers.
