Introduction of P31 Express and ICH7 chipset based Motherboards
1-1 Features of Motherboard
The P31 Express and ICH7 chipset motherboard series are based on Intel P31 Express chipset and
ICH7 chipsets technology which supports the innovative 45nm and 65nm Quad-Core,
Dual-Core Intel® Core 2 Quad, Core 2 Duo (Code Name: Conroe) processors, 90nm
Dual-Core Intel® D Processor 8series (except Pentium® D Intel 805.) an 9 Series processors,
Pentium 4 and Celeron with Intel® Hyper-Threading Technology.
The P31 Express and ICH7 chipset Based motherboard series deliver the revolutionary levels
of performance enabling vivid, high-definition experiences and multi-tasking responsiveness
from state-of-the-art Intel dual-core and quad-core technologies. Through the high bandwidth
of dual channel DDR2 800 / 667MHz system memories which are expandable to 4GB and the
PCI Express interface for the latest graphics cards from both AMD and nVidea. The P31
Express and ICH7 chipset motherboard series are absolutely the ultimate solution for game
enthusiasts and applications, and it also meets the demanding usage of computing of gaming,
multimedia entertainment and business applications.
The INTEL P31 Express and ICH7 chipset motherboard series are embedded with ICH7
chipset of providing four serial ATA2 interface of 3.0 Gb / s data transfer rate for four serial
ATA devices. More over, the motherboard provides also extra 1 Ultra ATA interface for two
IDE devices of 100 MB / s data transfer rate .
The P31 Express and ICH7 chipset Based motherboard provides Gigabit LAN function by using
the RealTek 8111C PCI-E Gigabit LAN which supports 10M / 100M / 1Gbps data transfer
rate. Embedded 6-channel ALC662 HD CODEC is fully compatible with Sound Blaster Pro
®
standards that offer you with the home cinema quality and absolutely software compatibility.
The P31 Express chipset Based motherboard series offer one PCI-Express x16 graphics slot
offering 4 Gbyte/sec data transfer rate at each relative direction which get 3.5 times of
bandwidth more than AGP8X and up to 8 Gbyte/sec concurrent bandwidth at full speed. Two
PCI Express x1 I/O slots offer 512Mbyte/sec concurrently, over 3.5 times more bandwidth
than PCI at 133Mbye/sec, tackling the most demanding multimedia tasks nowadays. Three
32-bit PCI slots guarantee the rich connectivity for the I/O of peripherals.
Embedded USB controllers as well as capability of expanding to 6 of USB2.0 functional ports
delivering 480Mb/s bandwidth of rich connectivity, these motherboards meet the future USB
demands which are also equipped with hardware monitor function on system to monitor and
protect your system and maintain your non-stop business computing.
