H77 Express Chipset
The Intel
®
H77 Express Chipset is a single-chipset designed to support the 1155 socket
Intel
®
3rd/2nd generation Core™ i7/i5/ i3/Pentium
®
/Celeron
®
processors. It provides improved
performance by utilizing serial point-to-point links, allowing increased bandwidth and stability.
Additionally, H77 chipset provides 4 USB 3.0 ports for 10 times faster data retrieval speed.
Moreover, IntelIntel
®
H77 Express Chipset can also enable iGPU function, letting users enjoy the
latest Intel
®
integrated graphic performance.
PCI Express
®
3.0
PCI Express
®
3.0 (PCIe 3.0) is the latest PCI Express bus standard with improved encoding
schemes that provide twice the performance of the current PCIe 2.0. The total bandwidth
for a x16 link reaches a maximum of 32Gb/s, double the 16 Gb/s of PCIe 2.0 (in x16 mode).
As such, PCIe 3.0 provides userss an unprecendented data speeds, combined with the
convenience and seamless transition offerred by complete backward compatibility with PCIe
1.0 and PCIe 2.0 devices. PCIe 3.0 will become a must-have feature for users who wish to
improve and optimize graphic performance, as well as have the latest technology available to
them.
* PCI 3.0 speed is supported by Intel
®
3rd generation Core™ processors.
Intel
®
Smart Response Technology
SSD Speed with HDD Capacity
Intel
®
Smart Response Technology boosts overall system performance by using an installed
fast SSD (min 18.6GB available capacity required) as a cache for frequently accessed data.
Key benets include reduced load and wait times, and lower power consumption through the
elimination of unnecessary hard drive spin. This technology combines SSD performance with
hard drive capacity, operating up to 6X faster than a hard drive-only system.
* Intel
®
Smart Response Technology is supported by 3rd/2nd generation Intel
®
Core™ processor
family on Windows
®
7™ operating systems.
** Operating systems must be installed on the HDD to launch Intel
®
Smart Response Technology.
The capacity of the SSD is reserved for caching function.
