H87 Express Chipset
Intel
®
H87 Express Chipset is a single-chipset that supports the 1150 socket Intel
®
4th
generation Core™ i7 / Core™ i5 / Core™ i3, Pentium
®
and Celeron
®
processors. It utilizes
the serial point-to-point links, which increases bandwidth and enhances the system’s
performance. It natively supports up to four USB 3.0 ports for up to ten times faster transfer
rate than USB 2.0 and enables the iGPU function for Intel
®
integrated graphics performance.
PCI Express
®
3.0
PCI Express
®
3.0 (PCIe 3.0) is the PCI Express bus standard that provides twice the
performance and speed of PCIe 2.0. It provides an optimal graphics performance,
unprecedented data speed and seamless transition with its complete backward compatibility
to PCIe 1.0/2.0 devices.
Dual-Channel DDR3 1600 / 1333 / 1066 MHz Support
The motherboard supports the dual-channel DDR3 memory that features data transfer rates
of DDR3 1600 / 1333 / 1066 MHz to boost the system’s performance, and to meet the higher
bandwidth requirements of 3D graphics, multimedia and Internet applications.
* Due to Intel
®
chipset limitation, DDR3 1600 MHz and higher memory modules on XMP mode will run at the
maximum transfer rate ot DDR3 1600 MHz.
Native SATA 6.0 Gb/s support
With Intel
®
H87 Express Chipset natively support for the next-generation Serial ATA (SATA)
storage interface, this motherboard delivers up to 6.0 Gb/s data transfer rates. It also
provides enhanced scalability, faster data retrieval, double the bandwidth of current bus
systems.
Quad-GPU CrossFireX™ Support
This motherboard features the most powerful Intel
®
H87 platform that optimizes PCIe
allocation in multi-GPU CrossFireX™ solution, giving you a brand-new gaming enjoyment.
