Introduction of Intel G41 Motherboard Series 1-1 Features of motherboard
The Intel G41 chipset motherboard series are based on the latest Intel G41 Express Chipset and Intel ICH7 Chipset technology which supports the innovative 65nm and 90nm Intel® Pentium® 4 Processor，Celeron 4xx Processor, Dual-Core Intel® Pentium® D Processor 8 and 9 Series, Intel® Core 2 Quad, Intel® Core 2 Duo® (Code Name: Conroe) Processor with Intel® Hyper-Threading Technology and fully supports the future 45nm processors. The motherboard is optimized to deliver innovative features and professional desktop platform solution with the advantages of the new generation dual core Intel® Core 2 Duo® Processor for those who demand the best experience of personal computing. Through the high bandwidth of dual channel DDR2 533MHz/DDR2 667MHz /DDR2 800 system memories which are expandable to 8GB.
The motherboards implement Intel G41 Express Chipset which supports Front Side Bus 1333MHz of data transferring and offers with 266/333MHz/400MHz memory clock frequency for Dual channel DDRII533/DDRII667/DDRII800 memory DIMM to double the performance of memory access. The motherboard is embedded with ICH7 chipset of providing one parallel Ultra ATA 100 interface for one IDE drives and four serial ATA2 interface of 3Gb / s data transfer rate for four serial ATA devices.
The G41 motherboard series offer one PCI-Express x16 graphics slot of 8Gbyte/sec data transfer rate at each relative direction which gets 7 times of bandwidth more than AGP 8X and up to 16Gbyte/sec peak concurrent bandwidth at full speed to guarantee the ultimate GPU computing performance. One PCI Express x1 I/O slots and two 32-bit PCI slots guarantee the rich connectivity for the I/O of peripherals. The motherboards are designed of tackling the profuse multimedia requirements nowadays.
The motherboards provide 10/100 Ethernet LAN function by using the PCI-E megabit LAN. The embedded Realtek ALC662 chipset is fully compatible with Sound Blaster Pro standards providing HD audio 6-CH CODEC offers you with the home cinema quality and satisfying software compatibility.
Embedded USB controller as well as capability of expanding to 8 of USB2.0 functional ports delivering 480Mb/s of rich connectivity, these motherboards meet the demands of future USB peripherals which are also equipped with hardware monitor function on system to monitor and protect your system and maintain your non-stop business computing.
Some special features---CPU Thermal Throttling/ CPU Vcore 7-shift /OC-CONin this motherboard are designed for power user to use the over-clocking function in more flexible ways. But please be caution that the over-clocking maybe causes the fails in system reliabilities. This motherboard provides the guaranteed performance and meets the demands of the next generation computing. But if you insist to gain more system performance with variety possibilities of the components you choose, please be careful and make sure to read the detailed descriptions of these value added product features, please get them in the coming section.
