Cache Memory
The G586IPB/E system board can support 256KB or 512KB pipeline
burst, direct map write-back cache SRAM. Your system board may
come with 0KB or 256KB cache mounted onboard. The 160-pin cache
module slot lets you upgrade your cache memory by installing a 256KB
or 512KB 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 0KB cache, you can install a 256KB or
512KB cache module in the cache module slot. If your system board is
installed with 256KB onboard cache on locations U22 and U23, 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 loca-
tions of the cache module slot (SSM1), U22 and U23.
