X8SIL/X8SIL-F User’s Manual
1-2 Chipset Overview
The X8SIL/X8SIL-F supports the Intel® Xeon® 3400 processor series. Built upon
the functionality and the capability of the single-chip Intel 3400 chipset, the X8SIL/
X8SIL-F motherboard provides the performance and feature set required for
single-processor-based systems with conguration options optimized for entry-
level server platforms.
The high-speed Direct Media Interface (DMI) featured in the Intel 3400/3420 (Ibex
Peak) chipset enables the X8SIL/X8SIL-F motherboard to offer a high-speed Direct
Media Interface (DMI) for chip-to-chip true isochronous communication with the
processor. This feature allows the X8SIL/X8SIL-F to achieve up to 10 Gb/s of
software-transparent data transfer on each direction, achieving better performance
than comparable systems. The X8SIL/X8SIL-F also features a TCO timer (to en-
able the system to recover from a software/hardware lock), ECC Error Reporting,
Function Disable and Intruder Detect.
