The Intel ® 915P chipset provides the interface for a processor in the
775-land package with 800/533MHz front side bus (FSB), dual channel
DDR2 at speeds of up to 533MHz, and PCI Express x16-lane port for
graphics card. The Intel
® 915P MCH platform is compliant to the Direct
Media Interface (DMI) and supports the sixth generation I/O Controller Hub
(ICH6).

The motherboard supports Intel ® Pentium ® 4 processors with the Intel ®
EM64T (Extended Memory 64 Technology). The Intel ® EM64T feature
allows your computer to run on 64-bit operating systems and access larger
amounts of system memory for faster and more efficient computing. See
the Appendix for details.

The Enhanced Intel SpeedStep ® Technology (EIST) intelligently manages
the CPU resources by automatically adjusting the CPU voltage and core
frequency depending on the CPU loading and system speed or power
requirement. See Appendix for details.
DDR2 memory support DDR2 memory support DDR2 memory support DDR2 memory support DDR2 memory support
The motherboard supports DDR2 memory which features data transfer
rates of 533/400 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 8.6 GB/s. See page 1-16 for details.
PCI Express™ interface PCI Express™ interface PCI Express™ interface PCI Express™ interface PCI Express™ interface
The motherboard fully supports PCI Express, the latest I/O interconnect
technology that speeds up the PCI bus. PCI Express features point-to-point
serial interconnections between devices and allows higher clockspeeds by
carrying data in packets. This high speed interface is software compatible with
existing PCI specifications. See page 1-22 for details.
Serial ATA technology Serial ATA technology Serial ATA technology Serial ATA technology Serial ATA technology
The motherboard supports the Serial ATA technology through the Serial ATA
interfaces and the Intel
® ICH6. The SATA specification allows for thinner,
more flexible cables with lower pin count, reduced voltage requirement, and
up to 150 MB/s data transfer rate.
