64-bit CPU support The motherboard supports 64-bit processors that provides high‑performance computing and faster memory access required for memory and data intensive applications. Intel® 945GC chipset The Intel® 945GC graphics memory controller hub (GMCH) and the ICH7 I/O controller hub provide the vital interfaces for the motherboard. The GMCH features the Intel® Graphics Media Accelerator 950, an integrated graphics engine for enhanced 3D, 2D, and video capabilities. The GMCH contains one 16-lane PCI Express port intended for an external PCI Express graphics card and provides the interface for a processor in the 775-land package with 1333(O.C)/1066/800 MHz front side bus (FSB), dual channel DDR2 at speeds of up to 667 MHz. The Intel® ICH7 Southbridge represents the seventh generation I/O controller hub that provides the interface for PCI Express and high definition audio. DDR2 memory support The motherboard supports DDR2 memory which features data transfer rates of 667/533 MHz to meet the higher bandwidth requirements of the latest 3D graphics, multimedia, and Internet applications. The dual-channel DDR2 architecture doubles the bandwidth of your system memory to boost system performance, eliminating bottlenecks with peak bandwidths of up to 10.7 GB/s. See pages 1­‑15 to 1-19 for details. PCI Express™ interface The motherboard fully supports PCI Express, the latest I/O interconnect technology that speeds up the PCI bus. PCI Express features point‑to­‑point serial interconnections between devices and allows higher clockspeeds by carrying data in packets. This high speed interface is software compatible with existing PCI specifications. See page 1-22 for details. Serial ATA 3.0 Gb/s technology The motherboard supports the Serial ATA technology through the Serial ATA interfaces and the Intel® ICH7 chipset. The SATA specification allows for thinner, more flexible cables with lower pin count, reduced voltage requirement, and up to 300 MB/s data transfer rate. ASUS P5GC-MX/1333 1-
