1.6.1.6 Advanced Digital Display (ADD2/MEC/ADD2+) Card
Support
The GMCH routes two multiplexed SDVO ports that are each capable of driving up to a
400 MHz pixel clock to the PCI Express x16 connector. When an ADD2/MEC/ADD2+
card is detected, the Intel GMA X4500HD graphics controller is enabled and the PCI
Express x16 connector is configured for SDVO mode. SDVO mode enables the SDVO
ports to be accessed by the ADD2/MEC/ADD2+ card. An ADD2/MEC/ADD2+ card can
either be configured to support simultaneous display or can be configured to support
dual independent display as an extended desktop configuration with different color
depths and resolutions with DVI analog output only. ADD2/MEC/ADD2+ cards can be
designed to support the following configurations:
• Low Voltage Differential Signaling (LVDS)
• Single device operating in dual channel mode
• HDTV output
• HDMI support (when used with the HD Audio Link header)
1.6.1.7 PCI Express x16 Graphics
The GMCH also supports add in discrete graphics card via the PCI Express 2.0 graphics
connector.
• PCI Express 2.0 x16:
⎯ Supports PCI Express GEN1 frequency of 1.25 GHz resulting in 2.5 Gb/s each
direction (500 MB/s total). Maximum theoretical bandwidth on interface of
4 GB/s in each direction simultaneously, for an aggregate of 8 GB/s when
operating in x16 mode.
⎯ Supports PCI Express GEN2 frequency of 2.5 GHz resulting in 5.0 Gb/s each
direction (1000 MB/s total). Maximum theoretical bandwidth on interface of
8 GB/s in each direction simultaneously, for an aggregate of 16 GB/s when
operating in x16 mode.
