There are many motherboards that are compatible with the Linux Desktop Multiplier. The primary criteria in selecting a motherboard are:
1. If there is an on-board video, the on-board video needs to be compatible with the Multiplier otherwise it will need to be disabled.
2. There needs to be the necessary combination of AGP, PCI or PCI Express expansion slots required to support the number of monitors you want to enable.
3. The greater the number of on-board USB connections, the better. Certain DFI motherboards have up to eight on-board USB ports.
Following are just a few of the motherboards that have been successfully deployed for Desktop Multiplier systems:
Intel Based
- MSI-MS-6585 - SiS648 Chipset (INTEL Socket 478)
- Intel D865 PERL - INTEL 865G Chipset (INTEL Socket 478)
- Intel D915PGN - INTEL 915P Chipset (Intel Socket 775, PCI-Express)
AMD Based
- ASUS A7V600 - VIA KT600 Chipset (AMD Socket A)
- ASUS A8V - VIA K8T800 Pro Chipset (AMD Socket 939)
- DFI LanParty nF4 Ultra-D - NVIDIA nforce4 Ultra Chipset (AMD Socket 939, PCI-Express)
- ASUS A8N-SLI - NVIDIA nforce4 SLI (AMD Socket 939, PCI-Express)
