1.3 Special features 1.3.1 Product highlights Latest processor technology The motherboard comes with a 1207-pin surface mount Land Grid Array (LGA) socket coded Socket F, designed for the next generation AMD Opteron�™��2�0�0��a�n�d��8��0�0��s�e�r�ie�s��p�r�o�c�e�s�s�o��rs�.��T�h�e��m��o�t�h�e�r�b�o�a�r�d��w�i�t�h�t�h�e� new socket supports registered DDR2-667/533/400 memory, delivering advanced performance and ensuring reliable data protection. Scalable Link Interface (SLI™) technology The NVIDIA® Scalable Link Interface (SLI™) technology allows two graphics processing units (GPUs) in a single system. This technology takes advantage of the PCI Express™ bus architecture and features intelligent hardware and software solutions that allows multiple GPUs to work together and achieve exceptional graphics performance. DDR2-667 memory support The motherboard supports DDR2 memory which features data transfer rates of up to 667 MHz to meet the higher bandwidth requirements of the latest server applications. The dual-channel memory architecture doubles the bandwidth of your system memory to boost system performance, eliminating bottlenecks with peak bandwidths of up to 10.7 GB/s. 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 or PCI-X specifications. Gigabit LAN solution The motherboard comes with dual Gigabit LAN controllers and ports to provide a total solution for your networking needs. The onboard Broadcom® BCM5754 Gigabit LAN controllers use the PCI Express interface and could achieve network throughput close to Gigabit bandwidth. Serial ATA II technology The motherboard supports the Serial ATA II technology through the Serial ATA interfaces controlled by the NVIDIA® 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. 1- Chapter 1: Product introduction
