System Overview
2.3.1 Intel Processor Support
The models covered in this guide can support an Intel Pentium Dual-Core G6950, Core i3, Core
i5, or Core i7 processor. These processors are backward-compatible with software written for
earlier x86 microprocessors and include streaming SIMD extensions (SSE, SSE2, and SSE3) for
enhancing 3D graphics and speech processing performance. Intel processors with vPro
Technology include hardware-based tools that allow corporate IT organizations to remotely
manage and protect systems.
The system board includes a zero-insertion-force (ZIF) Socket-T designed for mounting an
LGA1156-type processor package.
Ä
CAUTION:
These systems can support a processor rated up to 95 watts. Exceeding these limits can
result in system damage and loss of data.
✎
The processor heatsink/fan assembly mounting differs between form factors. Always use the
same assembly or one of the same type when replacing the processor. Refer to the applicable
Service Reference Guide for detailed removal and replacement procedures of the heatsink/fan
assembly and the processor.
2.3.2 Chipset

I/O controller hub (ICH) into a single component that provides the following functions:
■
PCI 2.3 bus controller
■
PCIe bus controller
■
LPC bus controller
■
SMBus interface
■
SATA interface
■
HD audio interface
■
RTC/CMOS function
■
IRQ controller
■
Power management logic
■
USB 1.1/2.0 controllers supporting 14 ports
■
Gigabit Ethernet controller
