The motherboard supports DDR2 memory that features data transfer rates

of 800/667/533 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 12.8 GB/s.

See page 2-15 for details.

Serial ATA 3.0 Gb/s technology

The motherboard fully supports the Serial ATA II 3.0 Gb/s technology through the
