ASUS P5L-MX 1-3
Intel
®
945G chipset
The Intel
®
945G graphics memory controller hub (GMCH) and the ICH7 I/O
controller hub provide the vital interfaces for the motherboard. The GMCH
features the Intel
®
Graphics Media Accelerator 950, an integrated graphics
engine for enhanced 3D, 2D, and video capabilities. The GMCH provides the
interface for a processor in the 775-land package with 533/800/1066
MHz front side bus (FSB), dual channel DDR2 at speeds of up to 667 MHz,
and PCI Express x16 graphics card.
The Intel
®
ICH7 Southbridge represents the seventh generation I/O
controller hub that provides the interface for PCI Express and 6-channel
high denition audio.
DDR2 memory support
The motherboard supports DDR2 memory which features data transfer rates
of 667/533/400 MHz to meet the higher bandwidth requirements of the
latest 3D graphics, multimedia, and Internet applications. The dual-channel
DDR2 architecture doubles the bandwidth of your system memory to boost
system performance, eliminating bottlenecks with peak bandwidths of up
to 10.7 GB/s. See pages 1-15 to 1-18 for details.
PCI Express™ interface
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 specications. See page 1-22 for details.
Serial ATA technology
The motherboard supports the Serial ATA technology through the Serial
ATA interfaces and the Intel
®
ICH7 chipset. The SATA specication allows
for thinner, more exible cables with lower pin count, reduced voltage
requirement, and up to 300 MB/s data transfer rate.
