tem at the set time interval. If the system hangs or fails to function, it will reset
at the set time interval so that your system will continue to operate.

DDR3 delivers increased system bandwidth and improved performance. The ad-
vantages of DDR3 are its higher bandwidth and its increase in performance at a
lower power than DDR2.
Graphics
The integrated Intel ® HD graphics engine delivers an excellent blend of graphics
performance and features to meet business needs. It provides excellent video
and 3D graphics with outstanding graphics responsiveness. These enhancements
deliver the performance and compatibility needed for today’s and tomorrow’s
business applications. Supports LVDS, VGA and DDI interfaces for display out-
puts.

drive performance faster than the standard parallel ATA whose data transfer rate
is 100MB/s. The bandwidth of the SATA 3.0 will be limited by carrier board de-
sign.
