Technical Summary
This MSI MS-9145 motherboard is a Dual K8 1U System designed for dual AMD Sledgehammer DP processors. The platform utilizes an 8131 HT bridge for CPU HT link connections, with additional Golem and Thor bridges for PCI-X and peripheral connectivity. Graphics are handled by an ATI Rage XL controller. Networking is provided by a Broadcom BCM5704C Gigabit Ethernet controller, and SCSI functionality is managed by an LSI 53C1020C controller. The system uses four DDR Registered DIMM slots for memory. Voltage regulation is handled by multiple ICs including ISL6559CB for CPU core voltages, ISL6522CB for DDR power, ISL6225 for VLDT1.2, LX8384 for 1.8V, and LM2575T-12 for -12V generation. The SIO is a PC87366, and hardware monitoring is managed by an ADM1027 IC. The board revision is 0D, dated 08/05/2003.
