Intel® G41 Chipset The Intel® G41 Express Chipset is designed to support dual-channel DDR3 1333 (O.C.)/1066/800 MHz architecture, 1333/1066/800 MHz Front Side Bus (FSB), PCIe 1.1, and mutli-core CPUs. It especially includes Intel® Fast memory bandwidth and reduces the latency of the memory accesses. Dual channel DDR3 1333 (O.C.)/1066/800 support This motherboard supports DDR3 memory that features data transfer rates of 1333 (O.C.)/1066/800 MHz providing great performance for 3D graphics and other memory-demanding applications. Serial ATA 3Gb/s technology This motherboard supports hard drives based on the Serial ATA (SATA) 3Gb/s storage specifications, delivering enhanced scalability and doubling the bus bandwidth for high-speed data saving and retrieval. Gigabit LAN solution The onboard LAN controller is a highly integrated Gb LAN controller. It is enhanced with an ACPI management function to provide efficient power management for advanced operating systems. USB 3.0 support Experience ultra-fast data transfer at 4.8Gbps with USB 3.0 - the latest connectivity standard. Built to connect easily with next-generation components and peripherals, USB 3.0 transfers data 10x faster and is also backward compatible with USB 2.0 devices. S/PDIF digital sound ready This motherboard provides convenient connectivity to external home theater audio systems via coaxial and optical S/PDIF_OUT (SONYPHILIPS Digital Interface) jacks. The S/PDIF transfers digital audio without converting it to analog format and keeps the best signal quality. 100% All High-quality Conductive Polymer Capacitors This motherboard uses high-quality conductive polymer capacitors for durability, improved lifespan, and enhanced thermal capacity. 1-2 Chapter 1: Product introduction
