H61 Express Chipset
The Intel
®
H61 Express Chipset is the latest single-chipset design to support the new 1155
socket Intel
®
3rd/2nd Generation Core™ i7, Core™ i5, Core™ i3, Pentium
®
, and Celeron
®
processors. It provides improved performance by utilizing serial point-to-point links, which
allows increased bandwidth and stability.
Dual-Channel DDR3 1600 / 1333 / 1066 MHz support
The motherboard supports DDR3 memory that features data transfer rates of 1600 / 1333 /
1066 MHz to meet the higher bandwidth requirements of the latest 3D graphics, multimedia,
and Internet applications. The dual-channel DDR3 architecture enlarges the bandwidth of
your system memory to boost system performance.
PCI Express
®
3.0
PCI Express
®
3.0 (PCIe 3.0) is the latest PCI Express bus standard with improved encoding
schemes that provide twice the performance of the current PCIe 2.0. The total bandwidth
for a x16 link reaches a maximum of 32Gb/s, double the 20 Gb/s of PCIe 2.0 (in x16 mode).
As such, PCIe 3.0 provides users an unprecendented data speeds, combined with the
convenience and seamless transition offerred by complete backward compatibility with PCIe
1.0 and PCIe 2.0 devices. PCIe 3.0 will become a must-have feature for users who wish to
improve and optimize graphic performance, as well as have the latest technology available to
them.
* PCI 3.0 speed is supported by Intel
®
3rd generation Core™ processors.
Intel
®
Smart Connect Technology
Your computer can receive fresh updates for selected applications, even when the system
is in sleep mode. This means less time waiting for applications to update and sync with the
cloud, leading to a more efcient computing experience.
