The G586IPV, equipped with a 321-pin Zero Insertion Force (ZIF) CPU
socket, is fast Pentium processor-class system board supporting Intel
Pentium CPUs running at 75MHz, 90MHz, 100MHz, 120MHz, 133MHz,
150MHz, 166MHz and 200MHz frequencies. The G586IPV also sup-
ports Cyrix 6x86 P120+/P133+/P150+/ P166+ and AMD-K5 PR75
75MHz/PR90 90MHz CPUs.
The G586IPV can support 8MB to 128MB of system memory. It is
equipped with a DIMM socket using x64 EDO, fast page mode or
SDRAM, and 4 SIMM sockets using EDO or fast page mode x32
DRAM. This system board also supports pipeline burst SRAM, and pro-
vides easy cache upgrades using 256KB cache module.
The G586IPV design is based on the Peripheral Component Intercon-
nect (PCI) local bus and Industry Standard Architecture (ISA) standards.
It is equipped with 4 dedicated PCI slots and 3 dedicated 16-bit ISA
slots.
The G586IPV board has two bus master PCI IDE connectors. Bus mas-
tering reduces CPU use during disk transfer. This system board is also
equipped with two NS16C550A-compatible serial ports, an SPP/ECP/
EPP parallel port, a floppy disk drive controller, one PS/2 mouse port
and one PS/2 or AT keyboard connector.
