INTRODUCTION
The MS-6315 (V3.0) Micro A TX mainboard is a high-performance computer mainboard based on Intel® 815E/EP chipset. The MS-6315 is optimized to support the Intel® Pentium® III (FC-PGA) processor for high­end business/personal desktop markets.
The Intel® 815E (Option G) chipset integrates a Display Cache SDRAM controller that supports a 32-bit 133MHz SDRAM array for en­hanced integrated 3D graphics performance. It is a highly-flexible chipset which is designed to extend the basic graphics/multimedia PC platform up to the mainstream performance desktop platform.
The Intel® 815E/EP chipset implements the host address, control, and data bus interfaces within a single device. It takes advantage of the pipelined addressing capability of the processor to improve the overall system performance. In addition, the chipset also integrates a system memory controller that supports a 64-bit 100/133 MHz SDRAM array.
The Intel® 82801BA (ICH2) chipset is a highly integrated multifunctional I/O Controller Hub that provides the interface to the PCI Bus and integrates many of the functions needed in today’s PC platforms. It communicates with the host controller over a dedicated hub interface and provides added flexibility in designing cost-effective system solutions.

SDRAM Cycle Time Tras/Trc
Selects the number of SCLKs for an access cycle. The settings are 5/7 and 7/9. The default setting is 7/9.
SDRAM RAS-to-CAS Delay
This field lets you insert a timing delay between the CAS and RAS strobe signals, used when DRAM is written to, read from, or refreshed. 2 gives faster performance and 3 gives more stable performance. This field applies only when synchronous DRAM is installed in the system. The settings are 2 and 3.
SDRAM RAS Precharge Time
If an insufficient number of cycles is allowed for the RAS to accumu­late its charge before DRAM refresh, the refresh may be incomplete and the DRAM may fail to retain data. 2 gives faster performance; and 3 gives more stable performance. This field applies only when synchronous DRAM is installed in the system. The settings are 2 and 3.

CPU Latency Timer
When set to Enabled, a deferrable CPU cycle will only be deferred after it has been in a Snoop Stall for 31clocks and another ADS# has arrived. During Disabled, a deferrable CPU cycle will be deferred immediately after the GMCH receives another ADS#.
Delayed Transaction
The chipset has an embedded 32-bit posted write buffer to support delayed transactions cycles. Select Enabled to enable delayed transaction and compliance with PCI specification version 2.1. The settings are Enabled and Disabled.
AGP Graphics Aperture Size
This option determines the effective size of the graphics aperture used in the particular PAC configuration. The AGP aperture is memory­mapped, while graphics data structure can reside in a graphics aperture. The aperture range should be programmed as not cacheable in the processor cache, accesses with the aperture range are forwarded to the main memory, then PAC will translate the original issued address via a translation table that is maintained on the main memory. The option allows the selection of an aperture size of 32MB and 64MB.
