Processor
The P4VMM2 mainboard uses a mPGA478 Socket that has
the following features:
• Accommodates Intel Pentium 4 478-pins CPU
• Supports “Hyper-Threading” technology CPU
• Supports a front-side bus (FSB) of 400/533 MHz
“Hyper-Threading” technology enables the operating system
into thinking it’s hooked up to two processors, allowing two
threads to be run in parallel, both on separate ‘logical’ proces-
sors within the same physical processor.
Chipset
There are P4M266/A Northbridge and VT8235 Southbridge in
this chipset in accordance with an innovative and scalable
architecture with proven reliability and performance. A few of
the chipset’s advanced features are:
• An advanced V-Link memory controller architecture that
provides the bandwidth up to 533 MB/s and performance
necessary for even the most demanding Internet and 3D
graphics
• Support for an 4xAGP interface providing vivid 3D graph-
ics and video performance
• An ATA 133 interface on the chipset, which helps boost
system performance by providing a high-speed connec-
tion to ATA 133 Hard Disk Drives, delivering maximum
sustained data transfer rates of 133 MB/sec
Additional key features include support for six USB ports, an
AC 97 link for audio and modem, hardware monitoring, and
ACPI/OnNow power management.
Memory
The mainboard accommodates 2 DDR + 2 SDR 168 pin, 3.3V
DIMM sockets with a total capacity of 2 GB system memory.
Built-in Graphics
System
• P4M266/A integrates S3

’s Savag4 graphics accelera-
tor into a single chip. P4M266/A brings mainstream
graphics performance to the Value PC with leading-edge
2D, 3D and DVD video acceleration into a cost effective
package. Based on its capabilities, P4M266/A is an ideal
solution for the consumer, corporate mobile users and en-
try-level professionals
• Maximum-shared memory size is 32 MB
Graphics
This mainboard includes a 4x AGP slot that provides four times
the bandwidth of the original AGP specification. AGP technol-
ogy provides a direct connection between the graphics sub-
system and memory so that the graphics do not have to com-
pete for processor time with other devices on the PCI bus.
AC’97 Audio
Codec
• Compliant with AC’97 2.1 specification
• 16-bit stereo full-duplex CODEC with fixed 48KHz sam-
pling rate
• 3 analog line-level stereo inputs with 5-bit volume control:
LINE-IN, CD-IN, AUX-IN
• 1 analog line-level mono input: PHONE-IN
• Three Audio Jacks – Line-Out, Line-In and Microphone-In
• Sound Blaster, Sound Blaster Pro Compatible
• Digital I/O compatible with consumer mode S/PDIF
• Advanced power management support
