Microprocessor

The Matrox 4Sight-M motherboard supports either the Intel Celeron M
microprocessor, running at 1.3 GHz, or an Intel Pentium M microprocessor,
running at 1.6 GHz.

Chipset

The chipset consists of the Intel 855GME graphics and memory hub controller
(GMCH) and the Intel ICH4 I/O hub controller (ICH).

The Intel 855GME components include:

• A Host interface that transfers data between the processor, computer memory,

and peripherals at a rate of 400 MHz.

• A computer memory (DRAM) controller, which can support a 64-bit DIMM

main memory interface, running at up to 333 Mhz.

The Intel ICH4 components include:

• A PCI interface, which can transfer data over the 32-bit PCI bus at rates up to

133 Mbytes/sec.

• An EIDE controller, working in UltraDMA-33/66/100 master mode.

• A USB 2.0 controller.

• A RealTime clock.

• A LAN controller 10/100 Mbits/sec.

• A digital audio controller.

• Power management features.

The Intel ICH4 interfaces with the BIOS, via a LPC bus. In addition, it interfaces
with the 855GME GMCH via the hub link (version 1.5) interface at 266
Mbytes/sec.
