Chapter 2. System-Board Features Chapter 2. System Board Features This section includes information about system-board features. For an illustration of the system board, see "System Board, Types 6862/6892 and 6275/6285" on page 14. Microprocessor PC 300GL (Types 6275 and 6285) and PC 300PL (Types 6862 and 6892) come with an Intel Pentium II microprocessor with MMX technology. The microprocessor, which has a heat sink attached, plugs directly into a connector on the system board. For information on replacing a microprocessor or installing an upgrade, refer to Installing Options in Your Personal Computer. Pentium II Microprocessor with MMX Technology The features of this microprocessor are as follows: Optimization for 32-bit software Operation at a lower voltage level than previous microprocessors 64-bit microprocessor data bus 66 and 100 MHz FSB 512 KB L2 cache with ECC 32-bit microprocessor address bus Math coprocessor MMX technology, which boosts the processing of graphic, video, and audio data L2 cache integrated into the microprocessor - 4-way set associative - Nonblocking - 50-percent processor speed performance increase over placement of L2 cache on the system board More information on these microprocessors is available at http://www.intel.com on the World Wide Web. Chip Set Control Two components, the Intel 440BX and PIIX4E, make up the chip set that is the interface between the microprocessor and the following: Memory subsystem PCI bus IDE Bus Master connection High-performance, PCI-to-ISA bridge USB ports SMBus AGP bus Enhanced DMA controller RTC 4 Copyright IBM Corp.
