Chapter 1 Introduction
This motherboard has a LGA775 socket for latest Intel Pentium 4/Celeron D
processors with Hyper-Threading Technology and Front-Side Bus (FSB)
speeds up to 800/533 MHz. Hyper-Threading Technology, designed to take
advantage of the multitasking features in Windows XP, gives you the power to
do more things at once.
This motherboard integrates the Intel 865GV Northbridge along with Intel I/O
Controller Hub 5 (ICH5) that supports the Serial ATA interface for high-
performance and mainstream desktop PCs; the built-in USB 2.0 providing higher
bandwidth, implementing Universal Serial Bus Specification Revision 2.0
and is compliant with UHCI 1.1 and EHCI 1.0.
It supports 6-channel AC’97 Audio Codec and provides two IDE Ultra DMA
100/66 channel. It has one AGP Ultra slot, one CNR and three 32-bit PCI slots.
There is a full set of I/O ports including two PS/2 ports for mouse and keyboard,
one VGA port, one serial port, one parallel port, one LAN port (optional), three
audio jacks for micropone, line-in and line-out, and four back-panel USB 2.0
ports. In addition, onboard USB headers provide extra ports by connecting the
extended USB module to the motherboard.
It is a Micro ATX motherboard and has power connectors for an ATX power
supply.
Key Features
The key features of this motherboard include:
LGA775 Socket Processor Support
• Supports the latest Intel Pentium 4/Celeron D Series processors
with Hyper-Threading Technology
• Supports up to 800/533 MHz Front-Side Bus

thinking it’s hooked up to two processors, allowing two threads to be
run in parallel, both on separate ‘logical’ processors within the same
physical processor.
Chipset
There are Intel 865GV Northbridge and Intel I/O Controller Hub 5 (ICH5)
in the chipsets in accordance with an innovative and scalable architecture with
proven reliability and performance.
• Host Interface Support
− One Intel
Pentium 4 processor with 512-KB L2 cache on 0.13 micron
process / Pentium 4 processor on 90 nm process
