It provides great system performance with its quad-channel DDR3 memory slots, PCI Express 2.0/3.0 expansion slots, and level 3 (L3) cache sizes. Intel® X79 Express Chipset Intel® X79 Express Chipset is a single chipset that supports the LGA2011 socket for 2nd generation Intel® Core™ i7 processor family. It utilizes the serial point-to-point links, which increases bandwidth and enhances the system's performance. PCIe 3.0 Ready The PCI Express bus standard delivers improved encoding for twice the performance of current PCIe 2.0. Total bandwidth for a x16 link reaches a maximum of 32Gb/s, double the 16Gb/s of PCIe 2.0 in x16 mode. PCIe 3.0 provides you unprecedented data speeds, with the convenience and seamless transition offered by complete backward compatibility with PCIe 1.0 and PCIe 2.0 devices, and improves and optimizes graphics performance. * This motherboard is ready to support PCIe 3.0 specification. Functions are available when using PCIe 3.0compliant devices. Refer to www.asus.com for updated details. 3-Way SLI™ and Quad-GPU CrossFireX™ Support This motherboard features the most powerful Intel® X79 platform that optimizes PCIe allocation in multi-GPU SLI and CrossFireX™ solution, giving you a brand-new gaming enjoyment. Quad-Channel, 8 x DIMM DDR3 2800 (O.C.) / 2400(O.C.) / 2133(O.C.) / 1866 / 1600 / 1333 / 1066 MHz Support The motherboard supports the quad-channel DDR3 memory that features data transfer rates of DDR3 2800(O.C.)/2400(O.C.)/2133(O.C.)/1866/1600/1333/1066 MHz to boost the system's performance, and to meet the higher bandwidth requirements of 3D graphics, multimedia and Internet applications. * Due to CPU behavior, DDR3 2200 / 2000 / 1800MHz memory modules run at DDR3 2133/1866/1600MHz frequencies as default.
