Memory
The four DIMM sockets on board allow memory upgrade to a 
maximum of 4GB using four 1-GB DDR SDRAM (Synchronous DRAM) 
DIMMs. For data integrity, the default setting of the ECC (error-
correcting code) function of the memory system in BIOS is enabled. 
The system board supports DDR266 SDRAMs; PC-133, PC-100, PC-66 
MHz SDRAMs are not supported. 
System chipsets
ServerWorks GC-SL chipset
The ServerWorks GC-SL+SL chipset was specifically designed to meet 
the needs of high performance systems. It consists of two components: 
SeverWorks CMIC-SL (North bridge) and ServerWorks CSB6 (South 
bridge). 
•
ServerWorks CMIC-SL(North bridge) supports Intel
®
Pentium
®
4
CPU with mPGA478 package. Build-in features include main 
memory interface with optimized support for DDR SDRAM, 64-bit, 
33MHz primary PCI bus interface (PCI) with integrated PCI arbiter, 
I2C bus support and other related functions.
•
ServerWorks CSB6 (South bridge) integrates support for ACPI, USB 
1.1, SMBus, PCI master, PCI arbiter, LPC bus controller, LPC arbiter, 
seven channel 8237 compatible DMA controller and DMA 66/100 
on primary & secondary IDE with DMA66 on third IDE and other 
standard PC functions. 
LAN subsystem
Another cost-effective feature for network solution is the integration 
of Intel
®
82540EM Gigabit Ethernet controller which supports
Advanced Configuration and Power Interface (ACPI) 2.0 based power 
management, advanced System Management Bus (SMBus) based 
manageability, Wired for Management (WfM) 2.0 compliance, TCP/
UDP/IP checksum calculation and segmentation, PCI 2.2 compliance, 
and PC 2001 compliance.
