Intel 945GZ Express Chipset<br />
The new Intel ® 945GZ Express chipset delivers significant performance gains with variety of new<br />
generation architectures including the latest dual core processor, dual-channel DDR2 memory, PCI-<br />
Express interface, Intel® Matrix Storage technology for improving storage reliability and performance.
®<br />
Intel Graphic Media Accelerator 950<br />
The Intel ® Graphics Media Accelerator 950 combines faster graphics processing and increased<br />
memory bandwidth to deliver richer visual quality and colors without the need for additional discrete<br />
graphics cards<br />
Intel Next-Generation Core2 Duo Processor<br />
Leading the silicon process technology from 90nm to 65nm, the Intel new-generation CPU transistors<br />
deliver more energy-efficient performance than anyone. Based on the Intel's next generation Micro<br />
Architecture, the Intel Core 2 Duo processor with two cores and shared L2 caches provides the<br />
best capability-per-watt solutions. The cutting-edge processor the significant performance boosts and<br />
better energy efficient platform<br />
PCI Express Interface<br />
Revolutionary PCI Express interface provides scalable bandwidth for multi-purpose usage. PCI-E x16<br />
interface delivers the utmost graphics experience; PCI-E x1interface delivers twice the bandwidth of<br />
PCI interface up to 250MB<br />
Dual Channel DDR2 533<br />
The new DDR2 main memory architecture delivers maximum bandwidth of 8.5GB/s in dual channel<br />
mode, providing highest performance for high memory resource demand applications.<br />
Gigabit LAN connectivity<br />
The Gigabit network interface delivers a high speed LAN connection with data transfer rate up to<br />
1000Mb/s, providing new generation connectivity for the broadband era. Gigabit LAN is ideally for<br />
seamless internet connection such as streaming audio and video contents.<br />
SATA 3Gb/s storage interface<br />
SATA 3Gb/s is the latest generation of Serial ATA interface speed that doubles bus bandwidth from<br />
1.5Gb/s to 3Gb/s. SATA 3Gb/s facilitates bandwidth aggregation for multiple devices, enabling max<br />
through put as well as, higher cache through put performance in single drive configurations.<br />
®<br />
8 channel Intel High Definition Audio<br />
Intel ® High Definition Audio enables premium digital sound in the PC for an immersive surround<br />
sound experience. In addition, Intel ® HD Audio delivers multiple audio channels in your PC so you<br />
can listen to two different streams simultaneously in two separate rooms.
Specification<br />
RoHS compliant<br />
As a member of the global community to look after the environment, Gigabyte complies with the<br />
European Union's Restriction of use of certain Hazardous Substances (RoHS) directive which limits<br />
the use of lead, mercury, cadmium and other hazardous substances in electronic products.. From<br />
components and material selection to production processes, make up of accessories, packaging/color<br />
boxes etc; GI<strong>GA</strong>BYTE has carefully examined and designed this product to be 100% RoHS<br />
compliant. GI<strong>GA</strong>BYTE will continue to develop RoHS compliant PC components and commit valuable<br />
resources to promoting and advancing RoHS directive goals and objectives.<br />
