Hi all

I'm thinking about replacing one of my current systems with a new one
and am looking at recent motherboards for AMD socket A to find out
what is/is not supported. Looks like AMD SoA is the cheapest
bang-for-the-buck solution and I'm looking at an XP 2500+ to go in it
- this is not a system particularly built for speed but more for price
and the cheapest P4 is about twice the price of the 2500+. I'm not
interested in Duron/Celeron options and AMD64 is too expensive.

On this machine I don't care about sound or IEE1394 or even USB though
if USB worked then that would be a bonus. It'll have a separate video
card in it so I'm not looking for boards with integrated video.

As far as I can see, there are a few motherboard chipsets around - VIA
KT600, and a couple of nVidia nForce2's. I know that at least the
KT600 based MSI KT6-Delta works with OS/2 because I've seen Sysbench
reports for it and this is one of the boards on my list - the FISR
variety since I can't find the LSR in the UK. Danis506 seems to
support the IDE chipset on this board, there are Broadcom drivers for
the GigE ethernet on hobbes (with a copy on the IBM site that they
came from originally that are now 6 _version_ numbers newer than the
hobbes copy!). I don't know if Danis506 supports the SATA chipset on
this board and that's one outstanding question - I guess it doesn't
matter too much since I could always continue to use the SiI3112 PCI
card that I'm using at the moment. This one seems to get quite good
(though not great) reviews on places like Anandtech and Tomshardware
but of course, both have trouble spelling OS/2 let alone testing it
;-)

All the reviews on those two sites seem to place the nForce2 chipset
as better performing but I haven't done much to find likely
candidates. The Gigabyte GA7N400 looks like a reasonable choice. Since
it uses the same SiI3112 SATA chip as my current PCI card, that bit
should work. I have no idea what a "GigaRAID ATA 133" RAID controller
is - hopefully just a fancy name for someone else's IDE controllers
that will be supported by Danis506 but... There's also a Realtek 8110S
GigE ethernet controller - anyone know if this has OS/2 drivers?

Is anyone using an nForce Ultra400 based motherboard with OS/2? Or,
even more important, the opposite - tried and failed?! Is there
anything I've overlooked - got OS/2 running on an AMD SoA motherboard
that I haven't considered? I'm looking at boards that support 333 and
probably 400MHz FSB processors.

I have just (1 month) build a system with:
Gigabyte GA-7VT600-1394 KT600 chipset exist also in different versions
without firewire.
This one has onboard
VIA SATA and IDE, works very fine with latest Danis's
Realtek LAN chip 10/100 works with the driver from Veit Kannegieser
Sound: VIA VT8233/realtek ALC 655, have not found driver for yet, not
important for me.
Firewire: VIA VT6306, have not tried yet have no firewire things.

512 MB pc3200 ddr ram noname
XP2500 Barton at FSB 333Mhz

Runs very stable

The board was chosen because of good PCI performance, nForce chipset and
some other boards has poor PCI performance (including ASUS).

It is nice that all IDE/SATA transfer is NOT via PCI but something
called V-link, it gives you a lot of bandwith to the disk's not loading
the CPU or fight with the 10/100 LAN interface.

I have also a cheap AGP card Club3D, ATI Radeon 9200SE 64MB, it
identifies it self as a Powercolor card.
Works fine with latest Snap driver.

You could have a look at Jetway mainboards www.jetway.com.tw

I have always found them to be cheap, cheerful and reliable - even have
usb and onboard sound (VIA 8235 and CMI9738) working OK on my current
mainboard (V333U).

I'm running an Athlon XP 2700+ on a ASUS A7N8X (nForce2 chipset)
motherboard.

I don't use USB, but I believe it will work. Sound does work, using the
latest Uniaud drivers (earlier ones, despite claiming compatibility with
nForce2 audio, do not work).

I use an Intel PCI NIC, so I haven't bothered to check compatibility with
either of the two onboard NICs (which are disabled).

One thing that was rather annoying in the beginning was that the speech
POST reporter kept saying "System failed CPU test", over and over, though
usually not after OS/2 was booted. It's a bogus message, and the only way
to get rid of it was to replace the WAV for that message with a Windows
utility (I replaced it with nothing).

As for IDE compatibility, I only have one IDE device (CD/DVD burner),
which works fine with DaniDASD.

I expect that all of the relevant motherboards will work just fine with
OS/2, though some onboard peripherals may or may not.

I don't think Scott is building kernels to please anything except Intel.
Sure others "work", but not necessarily as they should. I bought 4
motherboards in the past 12 months, two with VIA for socket A (KT333 &
KT400) and two with Intel (865PE) for socket 478. I don't plan to buy
anything except Intel in any future that includes OS/2 as my primary OS.

For completeness, I've now upgraded the system from a dual PPro
200/512, Tyan S1662D motherboard with 512MB RAM to a single AMD
XP2500+ on an Abit NF7-S with 2x512MB TwinMOS PC3200 RAM. I'm using
the cheapest ATI Radeon 9200 card that I could find, Asus 64MB 8x AGP.
Everything that I need is now working and the rest I will experiment
with over time. Abit NF7-S is built round the nVidia nForce2 Ultra400
chipset and has onboard sound (untested), onboard USB 2.0 (untested),
onboard 10/100 LAN (no driver, disabled), onboard ieee1394 firewire
(no driver that I know of, disabled). DaniS506.add 1.6.8 supports the
2 onboard IDE controllers and the SiI3112 SATA chip on this board. It
is also driving an add-in SiI0680 ATA133 PCI card providing 2 more IDE
controllers. I have an Intel PCI PRO 100 ethernet card in there that
gives me LAN - the same one that was in the old machine - so the lack
of the onboard ethernet is not a problem for me.

At non-overclocked settings this Athlon XP 2500+ turns in Sysbench cpu
results that are 5 times faster than both the Pentium Pro 200 engines
put together - i.e. it's 10 times faster than a single PPro200.
Simultaneous disk I/O score goes from 45MB/s to 145MB/s. DIVE video
bus bandwidth goes from 26MB/s to 697MB/s. Memory bandwidth goes from
344MB/s to 4355MB/s. All in all, quite a nice little upgrade ;-)

I was going to report on the figures I got by changing the FSB from
166 to 200, turning the XP 2500+ into an XP 3200+ with a single BIOS
change. Worked pretty well while I was building the machine but now
crashes before it reaches the desktop - I suspect more heat in the
case from installing 4 extra hard disks. It passed several hours of
memtest86 and seemed to be OK in OS/2 but I did manage to crash it
with a TRAP d after running burnk7.exe for about an hour so it wasn't
100% stable. The difference between the XP2500+ score and the
overclocked 3200+ version was about the same as the integer result
scored by both PPro200's so it went from being 5 times as fast as both
PPro's to being 6 times as fast. Since I wasn't going to run this
overclocked anyway, the failure doesn't bother me.

One oddity that had me baffled for a long time seems to be that the
SMP OS/2 kernel does not boot on a single AMD Athlon XP 2500+.
Symptoms varied but booting the system would TRAP consistently with a
CS:EIP=0140:00000dca. Switching to a UNI kernel (and related
doscall1.dll) fixed this but I'd almost got to the point of deciding
that the hardware wasn't compatible before I found the cause by
booting from the ACP1 CD which worked perfectly (first time ever on
any of my hardware that it has done so!).

I've updated pmp2l97 to support the Winbond w83627HF hardware
monitoring chip on this board and uploaded it to hobbes. It'll
probably work on other motherboards too as long as they have this
chip.

Sysbench 0.9.5 results here can't be compared for Graphics, Flops, or
for File I/O scores from previous versions.

Hey Trevor,

Thanks for releasing Sysbench 0.9.5 . It now works properly and gives
meaningful numbers with my dual Athlon. No more blank numbers or crash
on empty removable drives.

I have copied my numbers from my box below : dual Athlon MP 2800+, Asus
A7M266-D motherboard, 768MB PC2100 RAM, one Seagate 36 GB 15,000rpm
Ultra160 SCSI drive, one WD 200 GB 7,200 rpm ATA-100 drive, Sapphire
Radeon ATI 9200 AGP (4x).

The box was built in January 2002 . I added the IDE disk a year ago,
swapped the video card (originally a Matrox G450) about 2 months ago,
and upgraded the CPUs from Athlon MP 1500+ to 2800+ less than a month
ago. As you can tell below, the upgrades (primarily the new CPUs) make
this old machine still very favorably competitive with the latest and
greatest ;-)

I notice my RAM numbers are better than yours. That's surprising since
I'm using the ancient AMD 760MPX chipset which only supports a 266 MHz
FSB and PC2100 RAM.

My Sapphire Radeon also does better than yours in PM tests even though
it only runs at AGP 4x (due to the AMD 760MPX chipset only doing 4x);
but yours trounces mine in the DIVE tests, logically, due to AGP 8x (and
perhaps also the fact that you use 16 bit color vs 32 bits for me, which
leaves more bandwidth for the RAM). The fact that I beat you in the PM
tests suggests they are more CPU-bound than video-card bound.

I didn't bother with the optical drive tests. I know they all do 40x for
CD performance. Now, if you added a DVD read benchmark, that would be
interesting.

If anyone has built a faster OS/2 machine, I would like to know. I think
it would take an SMP Opteron box to beat it. I don't think any current
Intel chip will come close.
