DDR2 memory support
The motherboard supports DDR2 memory which features data transfer rates
of 667 MHz (FSB 1066/800), 533 MHz (FSB 1066/800/533) or 400 MHz
(FSB 800/533) 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 8.5 GB/s.
