DDR2 memory support
The motherboard supports DDR2 memory that features data transfer rates of
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 10.67 GB/s. Without
restriction to the memory size across the two channels, the motherboard allows
you to install DIMMs with different memory size and enjoy dual-channel feature at
the same time. See page 1-17 for details.
Serial ATA 3.0 Gb/s technology
This motherboard supports the next-generation hard drives based on the Serial
ATA (SATA) 3Gb/s storage specication, delivering enhanced scalability and
doubling the bus bandwidth for high-speed data retrieval and saves. Easily backup
photos, videos and other entertainment contents to external devices. See page
