Employing the Double Data Rate (DDR) memory technology, the
motherboard supports up to 2 GB of system memory using DDR400/333
DIMMs. The ultra-fast 400MHz memory bus delivers the required bandwidth
for the latest 3D graphics, multimedia, and Internet applications. See page
1-10 for details.

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 1-17 for details.

The motherboard supports the Serial ATA technology through the Serial ATA
interfaces and the VIA VT8251 Southbridge. The Serial ATA II specification
provides twice the bandwidth of the current Serial ATA products with a
host of new features, including Native Command Queueing (NCQ), Power
Management (PM) Implementation Algorithm, and Hot Swap. Serial ATA
allows for thinner, more flexible cables with lower pin count, reduced voltage
requirement, and data transfer rates of up to 150 MB/s for SATA I and 300
MB/s for SATA II. See page 1-26 for details.

The motherboard implements the Universal Serial Bus (USB) 2.0
specification, dramatically increasing the connection speed from the
12 Mbps bandwidth on USB 1.1 to a fast 480 Mbps on USB 2.0. USB 2.0 is
backward compatible with USB 1.1. See pages 1-23 and 1-28 for details.
