1
00:00:00,480 --> 00:00:10,280
so today as part of my retro unboxing series I'm going to be unboxing the

2
00:00:05,560 --> 00:00:13,200
Intel Desktop Board d850 MD this is for

3
00:00:10,280 --> 00:00:19,760
the Intel Pentium 4 processor technology for The Cutting Edge of the internet so

4
00:00:16,320 --> 00:00:21,920
this product is uh definitely engineered

5
00:00:19,760 --> 00:00:25,800
to make the best use of The Cutting Edge of the internet okay so that means that

6
00:00:24,240 --> 00:00:31,880
it includes

7
00:00:27,800 --> 00:00:34,960
Lan Intel Pro 100 land connection Norton

8
00:00:31,880 --> 00:00:39,440
Internet Security soundmax with SPX

9
00:00:34,960 --> 00:00:42,480
audio and four back panel USB 1.1 ports

10
00:00:39,440 --> 00:00:45,039
check that out it also has NTI CD maker

11
00:00:42,480 --> 00:00:50,760
2000 this product is intended to be professionally installed so um unless

12
00:00:48,520 --> 00:00:56,359
you're a professional don't install it I guess is what they're trying to say okay

13
00:00:52,399 --> 00:00:57,920
so it the d850 MD combines solid

14
00:00:56,359 --> 00:01:03,879
performance with support for Intel Pentium 4 processors in in the 478 pin

15
00:01:01,879 --> 00:01:09,320
socket designed with the Intel 850 chipset harnesses the full bandwidth and

16
00:01:06,400 --> 00:01:15,600
performance of Rd RAM memory into a microatx form factor awesome so R dims

17
00:01:13,840 --> 00:01:23,439
that means we've got support for dual rambus Channels with four RDM sockets

18
00:01:18,520 --> 00:01:24,840
for pc800 and PC 600 Rd RAM up to 2 gab

19
00:01:23,439 --> 00:01:31,560
okay we have a communication and networking Riser support an AGP

20
00:01:27,680 --> 00:01:35,159
connector Intel rapid bio boot Ultra

21
00:01:31,560 --> 00:01:38,040
fast ATA 100 that's pretty Ultra fast

22
00:01:35,159 --> 00:01:43,119
and then we have three PCI slots okay is there anything else on here that could

23
00:01:39,600 --> 00:01:47,079
be relevant no I don't think so why

24
00:01:43,119 --> 00:01:50,280
don't we go ahead and get this baby open

25
00:01:47,079 --> 00:01:53,799
you can see it's got like some some cool

26
00:01:50,280 --> 00:01:55,159
text on the front about 400 MHz front

27
00:01:53,799 --> 00:02:00,719
side bus yeah the front side bus is is dead

28
00:01:57,960 --> 00:02:04,960
and gone okay so inside find an IO Shield which looks very much like the io

29
00:02:02,680 --> 00:02:08,479
Shields that we have today then we have an Intel Desktop Board I'll say the

30
00:02:07,039 --> 00:02:13,360
usual thing even though I don't know how applicable it is you should download the

31
00:02:10,360 --> 00:02:15,080
latest drivers off the Intel website uh

32
00:02:13,360 --> 00:02:19,239
if they still have drivers available for this board you can see that the sticker

33
00:02:17,160 --> 00:02:24,239
is actually a little bit yellowed like for for context there's something white

34
00:02:21,319 --> 00:02:27,720
next to it so uh this gives us the general layout of the motherboard I

35
00:02:25,959 --> 00:02:33,480
can't tell which way is actually up maybe it's this way yeah there we go so

36
00:02:30,400 --> 00:02:35,080
uh Rim connector secondary IDE primary

37
00:02:33,480 --> 00:02:43,280
IDE AGP socket okay that's pretty good next

38
00:02:38,879 --> 00:02:45,480
we have the quick reference guide oo

39
00:02:43,280 --> 00:02:49,879
interesting installing the io Shield H I don't know how much

40
00:02:47,560 --> 00:02:53,440
interesting stuff is going to be in here maybe something about the warranty so I

41
00:02:51,920 --> 00:02:57,080
can talk about how the warranty is definitely gone H it's in a few

42
00:02:55,239 --> 00:03:00,159
different languages okay let's lose that we'll have a look at the board itself

43
00:02:58,319 --> 00:03:05,400
shortly okay we've got a couple of ID cables and one floppy cable there's the

44
00:03:02,599 --> 00:03:09,680
floppy cable oo gray cables how veryy '90s

45
00:03:06,440 --> 00:03:11,560
and we've got a couple of IDE cables ah

46
00:03:09,680 --> 00:03:16,720
high-tech okay so you can see one of the IDE cables is an 80 Pin cable that means

47
00:03:15,080 --> 00:03:21,040
that one out of every two of these cables are actually just uh blanks

48
00:03:19,000 --> 00:03:25,560
they're ground cables and those are intended to uh prevent interference from

49
00:03:23,400 --> 00:03:31,720
one cable to the next so that's for high-speed ATA 100 connections whereas

50
00:03:28,840 --> 00:03:35,920
this for Optical drives is a 40 pin connector so even though they have the

51
00:03:33,200 --> 00:03:40,959
same connection they um this one's not optimized for low interference there

52
00:03:38,480 --> 00:03:46,159
there's your um oh I don't know what this is I haven't seen this before this

53
00:03:43,720 --> 00:03:51,040
is actually a little bit before my day to be perfectly honest with you so I'm

54
00:03:48,560 --> 00:03:55,040
not going to be able to provide quite the amount of insight that I would

55
00:03:52,799 --> 00:04:00,439
normally be able to with a retro unboxing because this is too retro even

56
00:03:57,799 --> 00:04:05,120
for me so okay oh okay this was mentioned on the front of the box so

57
00:04:01,959 --> 00:04:07,560
this is some kind of um like fastener

58
00:04:05,120 --> 00:04:12,519
for the AGP card see normally we have these built-in these days but this seems

59
00:04:10,079 --> 00:04:16,959
to be like a like a not built-in one so you put it onto the onto the connector

60
00:04:15,439 --> 00:04:22,880
or something okay I'm not going to force it because even though it's old I don't really want to break it okay so let's

61
00:04:20,239 --> 00:04:28,960
see what do we got we got a socket 478 supporting The Cutting Edge Pentium 4

62
00:04:25,000 --> 00:04:31,720
internet processor then we've got four

63
00:04:28,960 --> 00:04:31,720
um

64
00:04:32,840 --> 00:04:41,280
I'm going to cheat what is this for yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah sorry four

65
00:04:37,560 --> 00:04:43,919
Rd RAM slot supporting dual Channel 20

66
00:04:41,280 --> 00:04:50,160
pin ATX connector there's your floppy connector two ID connectors for up to

67
00:04:47,560 --> 00:04:54,720
four hard drives uh presumably supporting raid but you know what aboard

68
00:04:52,680 --> 00:04:59,400
this old no probably not probably no rate support okay and then we've got ah

69
00:04:57,360 --> 00:05:04,919
an internal USB header so you can hook up Cutting Edge front USB and then

70
00:05:02,320 --> 00:05:10,039
you've got a fan header a motherboard battery and then some jumpers that's

71
00:05:07,919 --> 00:05:15,919
probably clear seos that says config maybe it's to config the BIOS I don't

72
00:05:12,240 --> 00:05:18,360
know what this is and I don't know what

73
00:05:15,919 --> 00:05:24,800
this is that's okay then we have three PCI slots because this is well before

74
00:05:20,800 --> 00:05:26,080
PCI Express took off and an AGP slot so

75
00:05:24,800 --> 00:05:31,400
that means that we can hook up our Cutting Edge directex 9 or seven or

76
00:05:28,840 --> 00:05:36,800
eight graphics card then we have a North Bridge um chipset cooler which seems to

77
00:05:34,120 --> 00:05:41,880
have like a hold down on it so that oh that comes off so you can actually let

78
00:05:39,960 --> 00:05:45,360
me see well I mean you know it's not like anyone's going to care if I damage

79
00:05:43,360 --> 00:05:49,560
this thing so I'll just there we go okay so you can actually take off the

80
00:05:46,800 --> 00:05:53,960
Northbridge heat sink that easily and let's have a look at the date on this

81
00:05:51,080 --> 00:06:01,280
chip here you can see that it is marked Intel 00 so this is from 2000 that's

82
00:05:58,759 --> 00:06:06,880
when that chip was manufactured very cool very uh very internet Cutting Edge

83
00:06:04,919 --> 00:06:11,680
okay so um let's see what else we've got on this motherboard here we've got an

84
00:06:08,840 --> 00:06:16,560
Intel P4 connector that's a four pin connector and then I think that pretty

85
00:06:13,919 --> 00:06:21,000
much takes care of what we've got on the top of the board now here's the I/O

86
00:06:18,639 --> 00:06:26,639
panel we've got a PS2 keyboard and mouse two USB 1.1 ports a couple serial ports

87
00:06:24,759 --> 00:06:32,080
a printer port haven't seen one of those in a while a couple more USB 1.1 ports

88
00:06:29,960 --> 00:06:38,039
there that's your internet connection very cool how highte and then we've got

89
00:06:35,000 --> 00:06:41,479
support for I believe they're saying 5.1

90
00:06:38,039 --> 00:06:44,199
audio no ac97 I don't think that is even

91
00:06:41,479 --> 00:06:50,680
configurable to 5.1 so there's mic and then line out and then uh speakers

92
00:06:47,360 --> 00:06:50,680
excellent thank you for checking out
