gigabyte ga-8i875 rev 2.0
Technical Specifications
Technical Summary
The GIGABYTE GA-8I875 revision 2.0 motherboard is built around the Intel Pentium 4 (478) CPU platform with a Socket 478 and the ICH5 southbridge. Graphics are handled by the GMCH CANTERWOOD supporting AGP 8X architecture. The board features dual BIOS configuration, an ITE 8712GX EC/KBC and Super I/O, and an AC97 CODEC AD1981B audio codec. Memory architecture consists of three DDR SDRAM DIMM slots. Networking is provided by a Gigabit LAN controller and a KINNERETH-R WiFi/WLAN IC, while a TI 1394 controller manages card reader functions. Power management is handled by the CANTERWOOD PWR IC, and clock generation is provided by the CY28405/ICS952603 clock generator. The board also includes an SMC 47M233 LPC I/O controller.
