The server board provides an ATI* ES1000 PCI graphics accelerator, along with 16MB of video

DDR SDRAM and support circuitry for an embedded SVGA video sub-system. The ATI*

ES1000 chip contains an SVGA video controller, clock generator, 2D and 3D engine, and

RAMDAC in a 272-pin PBGA. One 4 Mx16x4 bank DDR SDRAM chip provides 16 MB of video memory.

The SVGA sub-system supports a variety of modes, up to 1600 x 1200 resolution in 8 / 16 / 32 bpp modes under 2D, and up to 1024 x 768 resolution in 8 / 16 / 24 / 32 bpp modes under 3D.

It also supports both CRT and LCD monitors with up to 100 Hz vertical refresh rate.

Video is accessed using a standard 15-pin VGA connector found on the back edge of the server board.

You can disable on-board video using the BIOS Setup Utility or when an add-in video card is installed. The system BIOS also provides the option for dual video operation when an add-in video card is configured in the system.

The chip supports all standard IBM* VGA modes. The following table shows the 2D/3D modes supported for both CRT and LCD.

3.3.2 Video Memory Interface

The memory controller sub-system of the ES1000 passes requests from the direct memory interface, VGA graphics controller, drawing coprocessor, display controller, video scalar, and hardware cursor. Requests are serviced in a manner that ensures display integrity and maximum CPU/coprocessor drawing performance.

The server board supports a 16 MB (4 MB x 16-bit x 4 banks) DDR SDRAM device for video memory. The following table shows the video memory interface signals:
