Introduction of NVIDIA NF6100-430 Motherboard Series
1-1 Features of motherboard
The NVIDIA NF6100-430 Platform Processor Chipset motherboard series are based on the latest
NVIDIA NF6100-430(MCP61P) Platform Processor Chipset which supports the innovative
and supercharged new generation 64-bit AMD Socket AM2 Athlon64 and Sempron
processors with Hyper Transport Technology up to 1000MHz. NVIDIA NF6100-430 Platform
Processor Chipset motherboard series deliver the outstanding system performance and
professional desktop platform solution with the advantages of new generation 64-bit AMD
Socket AM2 Athlon64 & Sempron processors with an integrated low-latency high-bandwidth
DDRII memory controller and a highly-scalable Hyper Transport technology-based system
bus up to 1.0GHZ. By implementing the new generation NVIDIA NF6100-430 Platform
Processor Chipset integrated graphic processor which adopts the innovative
90nm
process
technology, the GeForce 6100 Graphics Core integrated video graphics array brings more
compatibility, stability and reliability with the widest range of games and applications to the
desktop platform system. The motherboards support the stunning video playback in all
formats and with superb picture clarity that brings the best visual experience and
ultra-realistic effects to the users. NVIDIA NF6100-430 Platform Processor Chipset
motherboard series are the real cost-effective and powerful integrated multimedia platform
solutions and meet the demanding usage of computing now and future.
The motherboards incorporate the integrated NVIDIA GeForce 6100 Graphics Core which is
fully compatible with Microsoft® DirectX® 9.0C and Shader Model 3.0. And it also supports
1000 MHz Hyper Transport speed of data transfer rate, the motherboards support new
generation Socket AM2 processors with an integrated DDRII memory controller which
provides with 266MHz / 333MHz/ 400MHz memory clock frequency for Dual channel
DDRII533/DDRII667/DDRII800(AM2 Sempron processor only supports up to DDRII667
memory) DDRII Module up to 4GB. And NVIDIA it also accommodates ULTRA ATA 133
connectors and Serial ATA2 with RAID 0,1,5,0+1
functions which support up to one IDE and
four Serial ATA2 devices to accelerate hard disk drives and guarantee the data security
without failure in advanced computing performance.
The motherboards provide 10/100 PCIE LAN which supports 10/100Mbps data transfer rate.
The embedded 6-channel HD Audio CODEC is fully compatible with Sound Blaster Pro
®
standard.
NVIDIA NF6100-430(MCP61P) PPC motherboard series offer one 16-LANE PCI-Express x16
graphics slot of 4Gbyte/sec data transfer rate at each relative direction which get 3.5 times of
bandwidth more than AGP8X and it’s up to a peak concurrent bandwidth of 8Gbyte/sec at full
speed to guarantee the performance and compatibility of GPU graphics add-in cards. The
whole series carry two 32-bit PCI slots guarantee the rich connectivity for the I/O peripheral
devices.
Embedded USB controller as well as capability of expanding to 10 of USB2.0 functional
ports delivering 480Mb/s bandwidth and rich connectivity, these motherboards meet the
