Intel Desktop Board D810E2CA3 User’s Guide
The TPS is intended to provide detailed, technical information about the board and its components to the vendors, system integrators, and other engineers and technicians who need this level of information. It is specifically not intended for general audiences. The D810E2CA3 board supports either an Intel Pentium III processor (FC-PGA package), or an Intel Celeron processor (PGA package). The system bus speed is automatically selected. The board supports the processors listed in Table 4.
NOTE:Because the main system memory is also used as video memory, the board requires 66 MHz or 100 MHz SDRAM DIMMs. It is highly recommended that SPD DIMMs be used, since this allows the BIOS to read the SPD data and program the chip set to accurately configure memory settings for optimum performance. If non-SPD memory is installed, the BIOS will attempt to correctly configure the memory settings, but performance and reliability may be impacted
The board has two DIMM sockets. SDRAM can be installed in one or both sockets. Minimum memory size is 64 MB; maximum memory size is 512 MB. The BIOS automatically detects memory type, size, and speed. Due to the video requirements of the D810E2CA3 board, most configurations require at least 64 MB of memory
The board supports memory with the following features: 3.3V, 168-pin DIMMs with gold-plated contacts100 MHz unbuffered SDRAMNon-ECC (64-bit) memorySerial Presence Detect (SPD) or non-SPD memory (BIOS recovery requires SPD DIMMs)Unbuffered single- or double-sided DIMMs
