Chapter 1 1.3 Special features 1.3.1 Product highlights LGA1155 Intel® 3rd/2nd Generation Core™ i7/Core™ i5/Core™ i3/ Pentium®/Celeron® Processors This motherboard supports Intel® 3rd/2nd generation Core™ i7/i5/i3/Pentium®/Celeron® processors in the LGA1155 package, with iGPU, memory and PCI Express controllers integrated to support onboard graphics output with dedicated chipsets, 2-channel (4 DIMM) DDR3 memory and 16 PCI Express 3.0/2.0 lanes. This provides great graphics performance. Intel® 3rd/2nd generation Core™ i7/i5/i3/Pentium®/Celeron® processors are among the most powerful and energy efficient CPUs in the world. Intel® Z77 Express Chipset The Intel® Z77 Express Chipset is a single-chipset design to support socket 1155 Intel® 3rd/2nd generation Core™ i7/i5/i3/Pentium®/Celeron® processors. It provides improved performance by utilizing serial point-to-point links, allowing increased bandwidth and stability. Additionally, Z77 chipset provides 4 USB 3.0 ports for 10 times faster data retrieval speed. Moreover, Intel® Z77 Express Chipset can also enable iGPU function, letting users enjoy the latest Intel® integrated graphic performance. PCI Express® 3.0 "PCI Express® 3.0 (PCIe 3.0) is the latest PCI Express bus standard with improved encoding schemes that provide 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). As such, PCIe 3.0 provides users unprecedented data speeds, combined with the convenience and seamless transition offered by complete backward compatibility with PCIe 1.0 and PCIe 2.0 devices. PCIe 3.0 will become a must-have feature for users who wish to improve and optimize graphic performance, as well as have the latest technology available to them. * PCIe 3.0 speed is supported by Intel® 3rd generation Core™ processors. Dual-Channel DDR3 2400(O.C.) / 2200(O.C.) / 2133(O.C.) / 1866(O.C.) / 1600 / 1333 / 1066 MHz Support The motherboard supports DDR3 memory that features data transfer rates of DDR3 2400(O.C.) / 2200(O.C.) / 2133(O.C.) / 1866(O.C.) / 1600 / 1333 / 1066 MHz to meet the higher bandwidth requirements of the latest 3D graphics, multimedia, and Internet applications. The dual-channel DDR3 architecture enlarges the bandwidth of your system memory to boost system performance. * Due to the behavior of Intel 2nd Generation Processor, DDR3 2200 and above/2000/1800 MHz memory module will run at DDR3 2133/1866/1600 MHz frequency as default. Quad-GPU SLI and Quad-GPU CrossFireX Support! Flexible Multi-GPU Solutions, Your Weapon of Choice! P8Z77-V PRO brings you the multi-GPU choice of either SLI™ or CrossFireX. The motherboard features the most powerful Intel® Z77 platform to optimize PCIe allocation in multiple GPU configurations. Expect a brand-new gaming style you've never experienced before!" 1-2 Chapter 1: Product Introduction
