HOT-597 is a high performace, cost effective, and energy efficient mainboard for the imple-
mentation of AGP, PCI, and ISA in desktop personal computer systems from 66MHz to
100MHz based on 64-bit Socket-7 super-scalar processors.
HOT-597 mainboard is a highly integrated IBM PC/ATX compatible ATX form-factor
system board designed to meet the industry's most demanding desktop applications. Based
on the VIA's MVP3 chipset.
HOT-597 accept AMD K6-2, K6, K5, Intel Pentium P54C, Pentium MMX, IDT-C6 and
Cyrix/IBM 6x86, 6x86L, 6x86MX processors and also features high-performance pipelined
burst secondary cache memory support with size of 1024KB. The memory subsystem is
designed supports standard Fast Page Mode (FPM), EDO, SDRAM, and 100MHz SDRAM.
HOT-597 complies with the Accelerated Graphics Port Specification 1.0 and features
support for 66/68/75/83/95/100MHz CPU bus frequencies and the 66MHz AGP bus fre-
quency.
HOT-597 provides a new level of I/O integration. VIA MVP3 chipset provides increased
integration and improved performance over other chipset designs.
The VIA's MVP3 chipset provides an integrated Bus Mastering IDE controller with two high
performance Ultra 33 DMA IDE interfaces for up to four IDE devices.
The onboard I/O controller provides the standard PC I/O functions: floppy interface, two
FIFO serial ports, an IrDA device port and a SPP/EPP/ECP capable parallel port.
Up to four PCI local bus slots provide a high bandwidth data path for data-movement
intensive functions such as graphics, and up to three ISA slots complete the I/O function.
HOT-597 provides the foundation for cost effective, high performance, highly expandable
platforms, which deliver the latest in Pentium processor and I/O standard.

main board, you can set jumpers, install memory on the main board, and make case connectors. Refer to
this chapter whenever you upgrades or reconfigure your system.
JumperSetting
This section describe the necessary procedures and proper jumper settings to configure the HOT-597
main board.
Jumper pin headers show on right side are used to
configure system clock, CPU multiplier voltages and
SDRAM clock speed.
System Clock and CPU Clock Multiplier - SW1
DIP siwtch finger 1 to finger 3 are used to adjust
System Clock from 66 to 100 MHz, finger 4 to finger 6
used to adjust CPU Clock Multiplier from 1.5x to 5.5x.
CPU Voltages - J19
Jumper group J19 are used to adjust onboard voltages
output from Switching regulators to CPU.
Futher more, HOT-597 Mainboard provide intelligent
CPU Voltages detecting and auto-adjusting function.
Enable this function by inserting a mini jumper pack on J19 row 2/3 (factory default), none of other mini
jumpers are required on jumper group J19. HOT-597 Mainboard will assign proper voltages to CPU
automatically.
SDRAM Clock Speed - Jumper JP9
HOT-597 support 100MHz external clock speed AMD 266MHz and 400MHz K6-2, and which allows
the user to use 66MHz normal SDRAM DIMM or 100MHz PC/100 SDRAM DIMM. Jumpers JP9 are
used to set SDRAM DIMM clock speed synchronous with System Clock (CPU External Clock) or
synchronous with AGP Clock.
Those hardware settings are made through the use of jumper caps to connect jumper pins on the main

SW1 and J19 are the Jumpers that you need to set your CPU on HOT-597. Make sure that you know
the type of CPU that you are installing and refer to the proper settings which are listed below.
Normally, CPU voltage is auto-detected on HOT-597 and is set to Auto-detected when HOT-597 is
delivered. If you have a higher frequency CPU or you want to set CPU frequency and voltage
manually, please refer to next two sections.
