mobile processors which are built on 22
nm technologies to provide smart performance and responsiveness on executing tasks. It
combines the CPU and GPU to offer fantastic HD media and graphics, especially on 3D
gaming experience. Doubles the bandwidth of your system memory up to 21GB/s and pumps
up the system performance at lower power.
DMI (Direct Media Interface) architecture connects between the processor and chipset at
5.0Gb/s which twice the speed of previous version. The exceptionally increased interconnect
bit rate from 2.5Gb/s up to 5.0Gb/s would effectively eliminates the bottle neck of the system
performance and brings the most terrific computing experience from the present to the future.
There are 2 of 5 SATA ports running at speed up to 6.0Gb/s, and each port can connect with
any other SATA 3.0Gb/s devices for backward compatibility. It supports RAID 0 (Striped disk
array), RAID 1 (Mirroring disk array), RAID 5 (Block Interleaved Distributed Parity) and RAID
10 (A Stripe of Mirrors).
The MANO870 also provides users the performance and protection. The integrated
5.1-channel HD Audio CODEC delivers advanced multi-channel audio and brings you the
experience of home theater-quality sound. Delivers transfer speed ten times faster than
conventional Gigabit Ethernet connections, supporting a high transfer rate up to Gigabit/s.
Gigabit LAN is the networking standards for the future and is ideal for handling large amount of
data such as video, audio, and voice. Supports TPM 1.2 with pin header.
