Thank you for choosing the DK8S2 high performance Server
motherboard. The DK8S2 is a dual AMD® Opteron micro-Socket
940 motherboard (M/B) based on the SSI form factor and is
configured with the AMD® HyperTransport I/O Hub 8111 and PCI-
X Tunnel 8131 chipsets. The board features a Hyper Transport
speed of 1600 MT (Mega Transfer per second).
For memory support, the DK8S2 provides eight sockets (four + four
configuration) accommodating up to 16 GB of memory using
registered PC3200/2700/2100 ECC DDR memory modules.
Flexibility and expandability are provided by two 64-bit/133MHz
PCI-X slots, two PCI 64-bit/66MHz PCI slots, and two 32-bit/33Mhz
PCI slots. This array of PCI slots enables numerous add-on cards
and provides Peer PCI transaction support to increase system
performance.
Other optional features such as onboard Silicon Image Serial ATA
RAID interfaces (available in DK8S2-SATA), dual INTEL® Gigabit
Ethernet controllers, and onboard ATI® RageXL video controller
with 8MB memory provide high system capabilities that meet a
wide range of demanding server applications.
