1.3 Special features 1.3.1 Product highlights Intel® Core™2 Extreme / Core™ 2 Quad / Core™2 Duo Processor Support This motherboard supports the latest Intel® Core™ 2 Extreme / Core™ 2 Quad / Core™ 2 Duo processors in the LGA775 package. It is excellent for multi-tasking, multi-media and enthusiastic gamers with 1600 / 1333 / 1066 / 800 MHz FSB. The Intel® Core™ 2 series processor is one of the most powerful CPUs in the world. This motherboard also supports Intel® CPUs in the new 45nm manufacturing process. Intel® P43 Chipset The Intel P43 Express Chipset designed to support dual-channel DDR2 1066/800/667 architecture, 1333/1066/800 FSB (front Side bus), PCIe 2.0, and multi-core CPUs. It especially includes Intel Fast Memory Access technology that significantly epitomize the use of available memory bandwidth and reduce the latency of the memory accesses. PCIe 2.0 This motherboard supports the latest PCIe 2.0 device for twice the current speed and bandwidth. This enhances system performance while still providing backward compatibility to PCIe 1.0 devices. DDR2 memory support The motherboard supports DDR2 memory that features data transfer rates of 1066/800/667 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 17.05 GB/s. Furthermore, this motherboard does not restrict the memory size across two channels. Users may install different memory size DIMMs into the two channels and enjoy dual-channel and single-channel functions at the same time. This new feature optimizes the use of available memory size. Serial ATA 3.0 Gb/s technology and SATA-On-The-Go This motherboard supports the hard drives based on the Serial ATA (SATA) 3Gb/s storage specification, delivering enhanced scalability and doubling the bus bandwidth for high-speed data retrieval and saves. The external SATA port located at the back I/O. 1-2 Chapter 1: Product Introduction
