G31 chipset
The Intel® G31 Express Chipset boosts your gaming and multimedia experience with
the integrated graphics engine Intel® Graphics Media Accelerator 3100. It supports
1333MHz FSB (front-side-bus), and delivers breakthrough advances in 3D and 2D
graphics; and video capabilities. This integrated chipset is able to meet the changing
display requirements of visually rich applications and features the Intel® Clear Video
Technology - which trailblazes new standards in high-definition video, crisp imaging,
and accurate color control.
Dual-Channel DDR2 1066 (OC)
Dual-channel DDR2 technology doubles the bandwidth of your system memory and
hence boost the system performance to out perform any memory existing solutions in
the market. .
Serial ATA 3 Gb/s technology
Serial ATA3.0Gb/s is the next generation ATA specification that provides scalable
performance foroday and tomorrow. With up to 300MB/s data transfer rate,
Serial ATA II is faster than current Parallel ATA, while providing 100% software
compatibility.
PCI Express Architecture
PCI Express is the latest I/O interconnect technology that will replace the existing
PCI. With a bus bandwidth 4 times higher than that of AGP 8X interface, PCI
Express x16 bus performs much better than AGP 8X in applications such as 3D
gaming. PCI Express x1 and x4 also outperforms PCI interface with its exceptional
high bandwidth. The high speed PCI Express interface creates new usages on
desktop PCs e.g., Gigabit LAN, 1394b, and high-speed RAID systems.
Max. 8 USB 2.0 ports supports
USB 2.0 is the latest connectivity standard for next generation components and
peripherals. Backwards compatible with current USB 1.1 peripherals, USB 2.0
delivers transfer speeds up to 40 times faster at 480Mb/s, for easy connectivity and
ultra-fast data transfers.
