Technical Summary
The MSI MS-9127 REV 1.0 (CW1A) Canterwood motherboard is built around the Intel Canterwood / ICH5 chipset, supporting Northwood/Prescott 478 CPUs via a uPGA478 socket. The platform features an AGP Pro 8X connector for graphics and utilizes dual-channel DDR memory architecture with four unbuffered DIMM slots. Integrated audio is handled by an AD1885/ALC202 codec, while networking is provided by an Intel 82547EI LAN controller. System power delivery is managed by a VRM10-INTERSIL 6556B regulator, and the LPC Super I/O is an NS87366. The clock synthesis is performed by a CK409 generator, and the system firmware resides on a Firmware Hub (FWH). The board includes five PCI slots, one Mini PCI socket, USB 2.0 support, Serial ATA, and Ultra DMA 66/100 interfaces.
