Technical Specifications
Technical Summary
The Quanta Computer GM6B3A is a motherboard revision 3A, dated August 28, 2010, supporting the Arrandale/Clarksfield CPU platform via an rPGA 989 socket. It features a dual graphics architecture with integrated Intel UMA and discrete Nvidia N11P-GE/GTS graphics. The system memory consists of two DDR3 SO-DIMM slots supporting dual-channel DDR3 800/1066/1333 at 1.5V. The embedded controller is an ITE8502, and the audio codec is an ALC665. The main BIOS is stored on an 8Mbyte SPI flash, while a separate 1Mbyte 17X8 flash is used for the EC. Power management is handled by a suite of regulators including the TPS51427A, RT8207A, HPA00835RTER, VT356, VT358, ADP3211, ADP3212, and MAX17007, with charging controlled by an ISL88731. Networking is provided by a Realtek RTL8111E-GR LAN controller, and the system includes a JMB389 card reader.
