1-2 Chapter 1: Product introduction
Intel ® G41 Chipset
The Intel ® G41 Express Chipset is designed to support dual-channel
DDR3 1333 (O.C.)/1066/800 MHz architecture, 1333/1066/800 MHz
Front Side Bus (FSB), PCIe 1.1, and mutli-core CPUs. It especially
includes Intel ® Fast memory bandwidth and reduces the latency of the
memory accesses.
Dual channel DDR3 1333 (O.C.)/1066/800 support
This motherboard supports DDR3 memory that features data transfer
rates of 1333 (O.C.)/1066/800 MHz providing great performance for 3D
graphics and other memory-demanding applications.
Serial ATA 3Gb/s technology
This motherboard supports hard drives based on the Serial ATA (SATA)
3Gb/s storage specifications, delivering enhanced scalability and
doubling the bus bandwidth for high-speed data saving and retrieval.
Gigabit LAN solution
The onboard LAN controller is a highly integrated Gb LAN controller. It is
enhanced with an ACPI management function to provide efficient power
management for advanced operating systems.
USB 3.0 support
Experience ultra-fast data transfer at 4.8Gbps with USB 3.0 - the latest
connectivity standard. Built to connect easily with next-generation
components and peripherals, USB 3.0 transfers data 10x faster and is
also backward compatible with USB 2.0 devices.
S/PDIF digital sound ready
This motherboard provides convenient connectivity to external home
theater audio systems via coaxial and optical S/PDIF_OUT (SONY-
PHILIPS Digital Interface) jacks. The S/PDIF transfers digital audio
without converting it to analog format and keeps the best signal quality.
