1-2 Motherboard Features
At the heart of the SuperServer 7043L-8R lies the X5DL8-GG, a dual pro-
cessor motherboard designed to provide maximum performance. Below are
the main features of the X5DL8-GG.
Chipset
The X5DL8-GG is based on the ServerWorks Grand Champion LE
TM
chipset,
which is a high-performance core logic chipset designed for dual-proces-
sor systems. See Figure 1-1 for a block diagram of the GC-LE.
The ServerWorks Grand Champion LE TM is a high-performance SystemSet
core logic chipset that consists of a North Bridge, a South Bridge and an IO
bridge.
The North Bridge interfaces directly to the processor bus and integrates the
functions of the main memory subsystem and the IMB bus interface unit.
The memory subsystem consists of an 8-DIMM configuration accessed over
a 144-bit memory bus (most chipsets have a 72-bit memory bus), which
provides a significant boost in performance.
The South Bridge provides various integrated functions, including the PCI to
ISA bridge and support for UDMA100, security (passwords and system
protection), Plug & Play, USBs, power management, interrupt controllers
and the SMBus.
The CIOBX2 is an integrated IO bridge that provides high-performance data
flow between the IMB interface and the dual peer PCI-X bus interfaces.
The X5DL8-GG has two CIOBX2 bridges (four buses).
