865GFT User’s Manual
Intel Pentium 4 Processor Family
Cooling Solutions
As processor technology pushes to faster speeds and higher performance, thermal management
becomes increasingly crucial when building computer systems. Maintaining the proper thermal
environment is key to reliable, long-term system operation. The overall goal in providing the
proper thermal environment is keeping the processor below its specified maximum case
temperature. Heatsinks induce improved processor heat dissipation through increased surface area
and concentrated airflow from attached fans. In addition, interface materials allow effective
transfers of heat from the processor to the heatsink. For optimum heat transfer, Intel recommends the
use of thermal grease and mounting clips to attach the heatsink to the processor.
When selecting a thermal solution for your system, please refer to the website below for
collection of heatsinks evaluated and recommended by Intel for use with Intel processors. Note,
those heatsinks are recommended for maintaining the specified Maximum T case requirement. In
addition, this collection is not intended to be a comprehensive listing of all heatsinks that support
Intel processors.

Introduction
The 865GFT MagicTwin is the world’s first multi-user enabled motherboard solution
available in the market. The special designed 2-user-system motherboard allows two users to
share the computing power of a single PC system. With integrated circuitry onboard, the
865GFT MagicTwin® motherboard comes with innovative software, the MagicTwin, allowing
2 users to be connected to it and runs up to two (2) stations directly from it. The unique and
copyright-protected technology, allows each of the 2 users to feel like having himself his own
Windows-XP computer. Each user needs to have himself his own keyboard, mouse, sound
device, and monitor. All remaining PC hardware will be shared, even the IP.
Both users can operate on their own station concurrently, similar to the operation on standard
PC, the Windows applications to create and edit documents, to do web surfing, to access
email, just to name a few. There is no obvious delay because of the Time-slicing/Multiplexing
technology built-in. Each user gets an exact and extremely short defined moment to access to
the PC system, devices, applications and Windows itself. Resources are only claimed for
nanoseconds at a time. Both users get from Windows and the PC, what they really need when
they need it! The MagicTwin solution turns the single PC into a cost-effective multi-user
system.
The setup is intuitive and easy. In only a few minutes, users can install and start using their
new workstation. No network administrator is needed as everything to network the
workstations together is done automatically with the MagicTwin software. To configure 2
users system you will need:
9 One Motherboard with onboard circuitry support for MagicTwin
9 One Dual Display VGA card for two Monitors
9 One PS/2 Keyboard Y-cable for two Keyboards connection (cable or wireless)

2-3-2 About Intel Pentium 4 478-pin CPU
This motherboard provides a 478-pin surface mount, Zero Insertion Force (ZIF) socket,
referred to as the mPGA478B socket supports Intel Pentium 4 processor in the 478 Pin
package utilizes Flip-Chip Pin Grid Array (FC-PGA2) package technology.
The CPU that comes with the motherboard should have a cooling FAN attached to prevent
overheating. If this is not the case, then purchase a correct cooling FAN before you turn on
your system.
WARNING!
Be sure that there is sufficient air circulation across the processor’s
heatsink and CPU cooling FAN is working correctly, otherwise it may
cause the processor and motherboard overheat and damage, you may install
an auxiliary cooling FAN, if necessary.
To install a CPU, first turn off your system and remove its cover. Locate the ZIF socket and
open it by first pulling the level sideways away from the socket then upward to a 90-degree
angle. Insert the CPU with the correct orientation as shown below. The notched corner
should point toward the end of the level. Because the CPU has a corner pin for two of the
four corners, the CPU will only fit in the orientation as shown.
