Intel

946GZ chipset

The Intel

946GZ graphics memory controller hub (GMCH) and the ICH7 I/O controller

hub provide the vital interfaces for the motherboard. The GMCH features the Intel

Graphics Media Accelerator 3000, an integrated graphics engine for enhanced 3D,

2D, and video capabilities. The GMCH provides the interface for a processor in the

775-land package with 533/800 MHz front side bus (FSB), dual channel DDR2 at

speeds of up to 667 MHz.

The Intel

ICH7 Southbridge represents the seventh generation I/O controller hub that

provides the interface for PCI Express and high denition audio.

DDR2 memory support

The motherboard supports DDR2 memory that features data transfer rates of

667/533 MHz to meet the higher bandwidth requirements of the latest 3D graphics,

multimedia, and Internet applications. The dual-channel DDR2 architecture

doubles the bandwidth of your system memory to boost system performance,

eliminating bottlenecks with peak bandwidths of up to 10.67 GB/s. Without

restriction to the memory size across the two channels, the motherboard allows

you to install DIMMs with different memory size and enjoy dual-channel feature at

the same time. See page 1-17 for details.

Serial ATA 3.0 Gb/s technology

This motherboard supports the next-generation hard drives based on the Serial

ATA (SATA) 3Gb/s storage specication, delivering enhanced scalability and

doubling the bus bandwidth for high-speed data retrieval and saves. Easily backup

photos, videos and other entertainment contents to external devices. See page

1-32 for details.

S/PDIF digital sound ready

The motherboard supports the S/PDIF-out (SONY-PHILIPS Digtal Interface)

function through the S/PDIF interface at mid-board. It allows to transfer digital

audio without converting to analog format and keeps the best signal quality. See

page 1-30 for details.
