AthlonTM Processors
The AMD AthlonTM is a seventh-generation micro architecture with an integrated
L2 cache, which is powerful enough to support the bandwidth requirements of a
large range of applications, hardware, graphics, and memory technologies. These
processors implement advanced design techniques such as:
Socket A (PGA 462
266/333/400MHz system interface based on the Alpha EV6 bus protocol.
Three out-of-order, superscalar, pipelined Multimedia Units.
Three out-of-order, superscaler, pipelined Integer Units.
Fixed-sized internal instruction formats (MacroOPs .
72-entry Instruction Control Units.
AMD enhanced 3DNow! technology
L1 and L2 caches.
Dynamic branch prediction.
Socket A is the name for AMDs new socketed interface designed to support AMD
AthlonTM processors. This innovation is made possible by integrating the L2 cache
memory on chip with the processor. Socket A will help enable smaller enclosures,
and ultimately result in a wider variety of solutions in the market.
The AthlonTM processors in the Socket A format continue to deliver the ultimate
performance for cutting-edge applications. Both bring to desktop systems running
industry-standard x86 software superscalar RISC performance. Being provided in
the Socket A format they are the worlds most powerful x86 processors. They easily
deliver the highest integer, floating-point, and 3D multimedia performance for
applications running on x86 platforms around.
It features full-speed, on-chip cache memory, a 266/333/400MHz front side system
bus, and enhanced 3DNow! technology. The AMD AthlonTM processor is
targeted at the performance segment, and as such will have more cache memory and
higher clock speeds.

Chipset Overview
This board is designed with nVidia chipset, nForce2TM Ultra 400 (also known as
nForce2TM SPP as North Bridge and nForce2TM MCP as South Bridge. NVIDIA®
has developed the next generation System Platform Processor (SPP nForce 2, to
provide the highest-performance, fullest-featured system architecture for the AMD
Athlon XP Processor. The second generation System Platform Processor works
together with the second generation of the NVIDIA Media Communication
Processor, the MCP.
The nForce2 was architected specifically for the AMD AthlonXP Processor.
NVIDIAs patent-pending DASP (Dynamic Adaptive Speculative Pre-Processor
technology intelligently predicts and prefetches requests from the AMD Athlon XP
Processor to boost system performance beyond its nominal speed grade.
The nForce2 Ultra 400 delivers twice the bandwidth by implementing the new
NVIDIA DualDDR Memory Architecture speed to DDR 400 memories. This
generation System Platform Processor also implements the AGP 8× interface,
HyperTransport Link, and is fully compliant with industry standard power manage-
ment specifications such as ACPI 2.0 and PCI Power Management Interface (PMI
Spec 1.1.
The NVIDIA® nForce MCP Media and Communications Processor (MCP
provides a highly integrated, high-performance, low-cost PC2001-compliant
peripheral controller that supports NVIDIA processor bridge functionality for
next-generation PCs. No other single-device controller provides all the functionality
of NVIDIAs MCP.
Introduction
Page 1-4
Accelerated Graphics Port (AGP)
The AGP slot on the board is compliant with the new AGP 3.0 specification. This
new specification enhances the functionality of the original AGP specification by
allowing 8X data transfers ( 8 data samples per clock resulting in maximum band-
width of 2.1GB/s. In addition, it defines 1.5 volt power supply operation. Complying
with this specification, this board supports external AGP-8X/4X cards with Fast
Write Transactions. Only 1.5V AGP cards are supported.
Ultra ATA/66/100/133
The MCP provides two independent ATA133 IDE controllers, supporting standard
programmable input/output (PIO and Direct Memory Access (DMA mode
operations, as well as UltraDMA-133/100/66/33 standards for a maximum data
transfer rate of 133MBps per channel.
LAN (Optional)
The motherboard mounts the LAN chipset. It allows the mainboard to connect to a
local area network by means of a network hub.
Hardware Monitoring
Hardware monitoring allows you to monitor various aspects of your system
operations and status. The features include CPU temperature, voltage and RPM of
fan.
IEEE1394 (Optional)
IEEE 1394 is a high-speed serial bus developed by Apple Instruments that allows
users to connect up to 63 devices to the serial bus on a PC. IEEE is sometimes called
the IEEE 1394 standard, the i.Link connector, FireWire, and the High Performance
Serial Bus (HPSB .
