Processor
The P4VMM2 mainboard uses a mPGA478 Socket that has
the following features:
•
Accommodates Intel Pentium 4 478-pins CPU
•
Supports a front-side bus (FSB) of 400/533 MHz
Chipset
The P4M266/A Northbridge and VT8235 Southbridge in this
chipset in accordance with an innovative and scalable archi-
tecture with proven reliability and performance. A few of the
chipset’s advanced features are:
•
An advanced V-Link memory controller architecture that
provides the bandwidth up to 533 MB/s and performance
necessary for even the most demanding Internet and 3D
graphics
•
Support for an 4xAGP interface providing vivid 3D graph-
ics and video performance
•
An ATA 133 interface on the chipset, which helps boost
system performance by providing a high-speed connec-
tion to ATA 133 Hard Disk Drives, delivering maximum
sustained data transfer rates of 133 MB/sec
Additional key features include support for six USB ports, an
AC 97 link for audio and modem, hardware monitoring, and
ACPI/OnNow power management.
Memory
•
The mainboard accommodates two 184-pin, 2.5V DDR
DIMM sockets with a total capacity of 2 GB system mem-
ory
•
Supports DDR up to 200/266MHz memory bus
Built-in Graphics
System
•
P4M266/A integrates S3
’s Savag4
graphics accelera-
tor into a single chip. P4M266/A brings mainstream
graphics performance to the Value PC with leading-edge
2D, 3D and DVD video acceleration into a cost effective
package. Based on its capabilities, P4M266/A is an ideal
solution for the consumer, corporate mobile users and en-
try-level professionals
•
Maximum-shared memory size is 32 MB
Graphics
This mainboard includes an AGP slot that provides four times
the bandwidth of the original AGP specification. AGP technol-
ogy provides a direct connection between the graphics sub-
system and memory so that the graphics do not have to com-
pete for processor time with other devices on the PCI bus.
