ICH7-M PCIe Bus

The Intel® ICH7-M chipset has four PCIe lanes. The four PCIe lanes are interfaced

through a golden finger on the bottom of the CPU card through a compatible half-size

backplane to either four PCIe x1 expansion cards or one PCIe x4 expansion card on. The

PCIe x4 golden finger is shown in

724H
