The Pentium 4 processor utilizes the advanced 0.18 micron processor core in FC-PGA2 package for a 2.0GHz frequency, while the Northwood processor uses the 0.13 micron processor core with 512KB L2 cache for up to a speedy 2.4+GHz frequency. The P4 offers optimized performance for audio, video, and Internet applications. See page 2-4. DDR memory support Employing the Double Data Rate (DDR) memory technology, the P4S333 motherboard supports up to 3GB of system memory using PC2100/1600 DDR DIMMs and 2GB using PC2700 DDR DIMMs, to deliver the required bandwidth for the latest 3D graphics, multimedia, and Internet applications. Digital audio interface (on audio models only) On audio models, a digital audio connector is onboard to accommodate the Sony/Philips Digital Interface (S/PDIF) Out module, which supports coaxial interfaces.
