System Overview
This board is designed with Intel® 845PE chipset. The Intel® 845PE chipset includes MCH(FW82845PE), ICH4(FW82801DB) and FWH three chips. The Intel® 845PE chipset is designed for Intels FC-PGA2 socket 478 package architecture and support the 4X capability of the AGP 2.0 Interface Specification. A new chipset component interconnect, the hub interface, is designed into the Intel® 845PE chipset to provide more efficient communication between chipset components.
Support of AGP 4X, 266/333MHz DDR SDRAM and the hub interface provides a balanced system architecture for the Pentium® 4 in the Socket 478 architecture processor minimizing bottlenecks and increasing system performance. By increasing memory bandwidth to 2.128GB/s through the use of AGP 4X, the Intel® 845PE chipset will deliver the data throughput necessary to take advantage of the high performance provided by the powerful Pentium® 4 in the Socket 478 architecture processor.
The Intel® 845PE chipset architecture removes the requirement for the ISA expansion bus that was traditionally integrated into the I/O subsystem of Intel chipsets. This removes many of the conflicts experienced when installing hardware and drivers into legacy ISA systems. The elimination of ISA will provide true plug-and play for the Intel® 845PE platform.
Intel® 845PE chipset contains three core components: the Memory Controller Hub (MCH), the I/O Controller Hub (ICH4) and the Firmware Hub (FWH). The MCH integrates the data transfer rate of 400/533MHz, Pentium® 4 processor bus controller, AGP 2.0 controller, 266/333MHz DDR SDRAM controller and a high­speed hub interface for communication with the ICH4. The ICH4 integrates an Ultra ATA/66/100 controller, USB host controller, LPC interface controller, FWH interface controller, PCI interface controller, and a hub interface for communication with the MCH. The Intel® 845PE chipset will provide the data buffering and interface arbitration required to ensure that system interfaces operate efficiently and provide the system bandwidth necessary to obtain peak performance the Pentium® 4 in the Socket 478 architecture.

Intel Pentium 4 processors
Formally known as the Willamette, the PentiumTM 4 is the next PEneration IA-32 processor from Intel. This next generation design is based upon a new micro­architecture that brings higher clock speeds and performance than previous processors could deliver. Among other advanced features the Pentium 4 offers Streaming SIMD extensions 2, Advanced Dynamic Execution, Hyper Pipelined Technology, and a data transfer rate of 400/533MHz system bus.
Streaming SIMD Extensions 2
Building upon the foundations of core features of their previous line of proces­sors the Pentium 4, this new version introduces Streaming SIMD Extensions 2 technology commonly referred to as SSE2. But what does this mean? SIMD stands for Single Instruction Multiple Data. Usually, processors process one data element in one instruction, called Single Instruction Single Data, or SISD. In contrast, with Single Instruction Single Data (SISD), SIMD has the ability to process more than one piece of data element during one instruction.
This technology is useful for 3D graphics applications that handle considerable amounts of floating-point numbers. With SIMD applications such as 3D graphics will be able to processor more data per instruction when equates to better performance. This technology adds 144 new instructions to the CPU core that can be used in a wide variety of applications. Software programmers can for example, take advantage of these new instructions and write more optimized code that take advantage of newer SIMD double-precision floating-point, integer, and cache ability instructions. In theory, this will enable better next generation services such as Interactive Digital TV to be produced.
Advanced Dynamic Execution
Advanced Dynamic Execution describes the improved implementation and abilities over the older P6 processor lines out-of-order decoupled super scalar execution. Dynamic execution allows instructions to the processor to be executed without the need to do so in order. The ability to do this can add a significant performance increase versus ordered execution.
Introduction
Page 1-5
Hyper Pipelined Technology & 400/533MHz System Bus
Hyper Pipelined Technology doubles the pipeline depth the Pentium 4 delivers to 20 stages. This significantly increases the performance and frequency capabilities. Pentium 4 also introduces a 400/533MHz system bus as opposed to the 100 and 133MHz bus seen in previous Pentium III processors. This allows 3.2Gbytes per second of throughput while the Pentium III had a limited 1.06Gbyte/s throughput. Willamette will reportedly be introduced in the 0.18-micron using aluminum.
Hyper-Threading Technology
Hyper-Threading Technology is a new features in the IA-32 Intel Architecture that provides a performance boost for future Intel-32 processors based on the Intel NetBurstTM micro architecture. This technology enables a single processor to run two separate threads simultaneously, this arrangement looks like two processors. Hyper-Threading Technology makes a single physical processor appear as multiple logical processors, there is one copy of the architecture state for each logical processor, and the logical processor share a single set of physical execution resources. From a software or architecture perspective, this means operating systems and user programs can schedule processors or threads to logical proces­sors as they would on conventional physical processors in a multi-processor system. From a micro architecture perspective , this means that instructions form logical processors will persist and execute simultaneously on shared execution resources.
For more information about all the new features the Pentium 4 delivers check

Accelerated Graphics Por t (AGP or A.G.P.)
Typically, 3D graphics rendering requires a tremendous amount of memory, and demands ever increasing throughput speed as well. As 3D products for the personal computer become more and more popular, these demands will only increase. This will cause a rise in costs for both end users and manufacturers. Lowering these costs as well as improving performance is the primary motivation behind AGP. By providing a massive increase in the bandwidth available between the video card and the processor, it will assist in relieving some of these pressures for quite sometime.
The board provides the AGP 2.0 interface. The AGP Interface Specification revision
2.0 enhances the functionality of the original AGP Interface Specification (revision
1.0) by allowing 4X data transfers (4 data samples per clock) and 1.5 volt (power supply) operation. The AGP 2.0 interface, along with SDRAM memory technology, allows graphics controllers to access main memory at over 1GB/s. In order to match the 4X AGP Card. The board used the Universal AGP connector. (1.5 volt AGP Card supports only).
Ultra ATA/66/100
The ICH4 provides two channel Ultra ATA/66/100 Bus Master IDE controllers, that support Ultra ATA/66/100 protocols, perfect for such demanding applications as real-time video, multimedia, and high performance operating system. A new IDE cable is required for Ultra ATA/66/100. This cable is an 80 conductor cable; however the connectors are, of course, backwards compatible with ATA/33.
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.

Mainboard Form-Factor
The board is designed with ATX form factor - the latest industry standard of chassis. The ATX form factor is essentially a Baby-AT baseboard rotated 90 degrees within the chassis enclosure and a new mounting configuration for the power supply. With these changes the processor is relocated away from the expansion slots, allowing them all to hold full length add-in cards. ATX defines a double height aperture to the rear of the chassis which can be used to host a wide range of onboard I/O. Only the size and position of this aperture is defined, allowing PC manufacturers to add new I/O features (e.g.; TV input, TV output, joystick, modem, LAN, audio, etc.) to systems. This will help systems integrators differentiate their products in the marketplace, and better meet your needs.
By integrating more I/O down onto the board and better positioning the
hard drive and floppy connectors material cost of cables and add-in cards is reduced.
By reducing the number of cables and components in the system, manufac-
turing time and inventory holding costs are reduced and reliability will increase.
By using an optimized power supply, it's possible to reduce cooling costs
and lower acoustical noise. An ATX power supply, which has a side­mounted fan, allows direct cooling of the processor and add-in cards making a secondary fan or active heatsink unnecessary in most system applications.

I/O Shield Connector
The board is equipped with an I/O back panel. Please use the appropriate I/O shield (figure 3).
Power-On/Off (Remote)
The board has a single 20-pin ATX and 4-pin ATX12V connector for power supplies (Figure 4). For power supplies that support the Remote On/Off feature, this should be connected to the mainboard front panel PW_ON connector for the computer power On/Off button. The board has been designed with Soft Off" function. You can turn off the system two ways: pressing the front panel power On/Off button, using the "Soft Off" function (incorporated in the mainboards onboard circuit controller) that can be controlled by an operating system such as Windows®XP/ME/2000/98/95.
Note: For maintaining the DDR SDRAM power during STR (ACPI S3) function, it is
strongly recommend to use power supplies that have a +5VSB current of (>=) 1A (1000mA). Please check the 5VSBs specification that has been printed on the power supplys outer case.
Note: The board requires a minimum of 250 Watt power supply to operate. Your
system configuration (amount of memory, add-in cards, peripherals, etc.) may exceed the minimum power requirement but to ensure that adequate power is provided, use a 300 Watt (or greater) power supply.
