Product Description

1.5 Intel

NM10 Express Chipset

The Intel NM10 Express Chipset provides interfaces to the processor and the USB,

SATA, LPC, LAN, PCI, and PCI Express interfaces. The Intel NM10 Express Chipset is a

centralized controller for the board’s I/O paths.

NOTE

The board is designed to be passively cooled in a properly ventilated chassis. Chassis

venting locations are recommended above the processor heatsink area for maximum

heat dissipation effectiveness.

1.5.1.1 Video Memory Allocation

Video memory is allocated from the total available system memory for the efficient

balancing of 2-D/3-D graphics performance and overall system performance. Dynamic

allocation of system memory to video memory is as follows:

• 256 MB total RAM results in 32 MB video RAM

• 512 MB total RAM results in 64 MB video RAM

• 1 GB total RAM results in 128 MB video RAM

• 2 GB total RAM results in 224 MB video RAM

1.5.1.2 Analog Display (VGA)

The VGA port supports analog displays. The maximum supported resolution is 2048 x

1536 (QXGA) at a 75 Hz refresh rate.
