Dual-channel DDR and DDR2 memory support Dual-channel DDR and DDR2 memory support

Dual-channel DDR and DDR2 memory support

The motherboard supports DDR and DDR2 memory for flexible system

upgrade and to meet the higher bandwidth requirements of the latest 3D

graphics, multimedia, and Internet applications. The dual-channel

architecture allows memory bandwidths of up to 6.4 GB/s for DDR, or 8.5

GB/s for DDR2. See page 2-13 for details.

PCI Express™ interface PCI Express™ interface

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 specifications. See page 2-23 for details.

8-channel high definition audio

Onboard is the C-Media CMI9880 7.1-channel audio CODEC. This CODEC is

fully-compliant with Intel

High Definition Audio standard (192 KHz, 24-bit

audio). With the CODEC, 8-channel audio ports, and S/PDIF interfaces, you

can connect your computer to home theater decoders to produce

crystal-clear digital audio.

The CMI9880 audio CODEC comes with a software application that features

jack detection to monitor the plugging status of each jack, impedance

sensing to determine audio device classes, and pre-defined equalization for

various audio devices. See page 5-11 for details.

The CMI9880 audio CODEC comes with an AC-3 encoder capable of

transforming your computer’s digital audio contents into real-time Dolby

Digital stream. This digital stream passes through the S/PDIF out interfaces

to an AC-3 decoder for 7.1-channel feedback. See page 5-15 for details.

IEEE 1394a support

The IEEE 1394a interface provides high-speed and flexible PC connectivity

to a wide range of peripherals and devices compliant to IEEE 1394a

standards. The IEEE 1394a interface allows up to 400 Mbps transfer rates

through simple, low-cost, high-bandwidth asynchronous (real-time) data

interfacing between computers, peripherals, and consumer electronic

devices such as camcorders, VCRs, printers,TVs, and digital cameras. See

page 2-27 and 2-37 for details.
