Introducing the 3L Small Form Factor
Feature of the motherboard
• Accommodates Intel ® Core TM 2 Duo/Celeron ® processors
• Supports a system bus (FSB) of 1333/1066/800 MHz
• Supports “Hyper-Threading” technology CPU
The motherboard uses an LGA775 type of Intel ® Core TM 2 Duo/Celeron ® proces-
sors that carries the following features:
Processor
“Hyper-Threading” technology enables the operating system into thinking it’s
hooked up to two processors, allowing two threads to be run in parallel, both on
separate “logical” processors within the same physical processor.
Chipset
The Intel ® G43 Northbridge (NB) and Intel ® ICH10 Southbridge (SB) chipsets
are based on an innovative and scalable architecture with proven reliability and
performance.
G43
(NB) • Supports 36-bit host bus addressing, allowing the CPU to
access the entire 64 GB of the memory address space
• Chip-to-chip connection interface to Intel ICH10
• 2 GB/s point-to-point Direct Media Interface (DMI) to ICH10
(1 GB/s each direction)
• Supports 2-Gb,1-Gb and 512-Mb DDR2 DRAM technolo-
gies for x8 and x16 devices
• An integrated graphics device (IGD) delivering cost com-
petitive 3D, 2D and video capabilities
• Two MINI PCI Express ports intended for external devices
