Also known as:
- Amptron PM-7600
Known issues:
- Fake cache
The motherboard may include a non-functional or counterfeit SRAM cache, which can adversely affect performance. Signs of fake cache often include soldered QFP or DIP-chips labeled "WRITE-BACK" with traces that do not connect to the chipset.
-
DIP chips can typically be removed and replaced with functional SRAM chips in sockets to restore cache functionality.
-
QFP fake cache chips are often not replaceable with functional cache as the PCB footprints are not chipset connected.
-
Inadequate Power Delivery
This motherboard may have insufficient power delivery, which can lead to unstable or unsafe operation. In extreme cases, this may result in hardware damage, spontaneous combustion, or other electrical failures. Users should exercise caution and consider upgrading the motherboard power supply or other components to ensure safe and stable operation. The RetroWeb community may also provide guidance and assistance in mitigating this issue.
Notes:
Some revisions have fake cache, some others have cache on plain old DIP sockets, all have the COAST slot. Split Voltage CPU Support w/ VRM and BIOS update. The schema is most likely for an M507.
