Description:
|
Excellent mobo from Intel. Supports P4 chips with 533Mz or 400Mz FSB, DDR333 RAM (up to 2G max), one 4xAGP slot, ATX form factor, Serial ATA support, onboard sound, 5 PCI expansion slots, USB 2.0 support (offers 4 ports on the back panel, with an adapter for 2 additional backside ports, or 2 optional front panel ports, integrated Intel PRO/100 LAN connection.
Commentary: this is a great board, and works especially well with the P4 CPU. There is a huge amount of expansion available with this board, and being able to wire up USB ports on the front panel is a major ease-of-use advantage. The built in sound and NIC are useful too, both of which eliminate various initial configuration issues. I don't use SATA but the fact that this board supports it is a great thing, assuming that I decide to go in that direction.
Overall, this is a great board and should meet or exceed anyone's expectations.

The integrated ethernet card is supported since Linux-2.4.x series. Making integrated sound card work, is harder, but it works.

This motherboard is fully supported by freeBSD. Adding these two lines to /boot/loader.conf:
snd_pcm_load="YES" # Digital sound subsystem
snd_ich_load="YES" # Intel ICH
will activate the onboard sound.
One could not ask for a more solid motherboard when running freeBSD in a desktop environment.
