Revision 1.40
ATI Rage XL chip contains a SVGA video controller, clock generator, 2D and 3D engine, and
RAMDAC in a 272-pin PBGA. One 2Mx32 SDRAM chip provides 8 MB of video memory.
The SVGA subsystem supports a variety of modes, up to 1600 x 1200 resolution in 8/16/24/32
bpp modes under 2D, and up to 1024 x 768 resolution in 8/16/24/32 bpp modes under 3D. It also
supports both CRT and LCD monitors up to 100 Hz vertical refresh rate.
The Intel
®
Server Board SE7500CW2 provides a standard 15-pin VGA connector and supports
disabling of the on-board video through the BIOS setup menu or when a plug in video card is
installed in any of the PCI slots.
4.2.1.1 Video Modes
The ATI Rage XL chip supports all standard IBM VGA modes. The following table shows the
2D/3D modes supported for both CRT and LCD. The table specifies the minimum memory
requirement for various display resolution, refresh rates and color depths.
