USER’S MANUAL E C F A B D G H 1 English Contents Optional items Introduction www.DataSheet4U.com 1-2 Mainboard Features Brief Introduction Socket 775 Socket 775-based motherboards are designed to provide performance enhancements for Intel Pentium ® 4 processor-based systems, and it also expected to be the next-generation of platform innovations. For more details about the Pentium® 4 processor, please visit the Intel Web site at http:// www.Intel.com. Chipset The board is designed with Intel (945P/945PL+ICH7) chipset, featuring performance and stability with the most innovative technology and features. For more details about the Intel Chipset, please visit the Intel Web site at http://www.Intel. com. DDR2 DDR2 ushers in the new era of DDR memory technology. DDR2 memory offers faster speed, higher data bandwidth and lower power consumption over DDR. PCI-Express (PCI-E) Next generation peripheral interface to succeed to current PCI bus for the next decade. With smaller slot size and 250MB/sec (PCI-E*1) or 4GB/sec(PCI-E*16) maximum transfer, PCI-Express overcomes PCI bus bottleneck. Dual Channel Supports dual channel of DDR2 memory to give you twice the memory bandwidth for greater system performance. Hardware Monitoring Hardware monitoring enables you to monitor various aspects of the system operation and status. This includes CPU temperature, voltage and fan speed in RPMs. 10/100 LAN (Optional) This mainboard is mounted with a 10/100BASE-T Ethernet LAN controller. It allows the mainboard to connect to a local area network by means of a network hub. GbE LAN (Optional) The new Gigabit Ethernet LAN allows data transmission at 1,000 megabits per second (Mbps), which runs 10 times faster than conventional 10/100BASE-T Ethernet LANs. Serial ATA II S-ATA II is the second generation SATA interface with double the transferring speed up to 300MB/sec. It supports NCQ to provide faster reading speed for your storage devices. USB2.0 A popular USB standard for plugging in peripherals with up to 480Mbps transfer speed while maintaining backward compatibility with older USB1.1 device. 6ch Mainboard is equipped with 6 channel of audio to support Dolby Digital 5.1 audio for DVD-playback. The onboard audio jacks can be configured for normal 2 channel mode or 6 channel mode.
