DDR2 memory support
The motherboard supports DDR2 memory, which features data transfer
rates of 800/667/533 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 page 2-14 for details.

The motherboard supports PCI-X, the new and improved version of the
previous PCI standard. PCI-X offers faster data transfers and enhanced system
reliability with ECC automatic single-bit error recovery and double-bit error
detection. PCI-X, which is backward-compatible with PCI-based hardware and
software, enables users to keep pace with upcoming advances in
high-bandwidth, business-critical applications such as Fiber Channel, RAID,
InfiniBrand™ Architecture, and iSCSI. See page 2-23 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 2-23 for details.
