1.4.1 Product highlights
Latest processor technology
The motherboard comes with two LGA-771 sockets that support Dual-Core
Intel ® Xeon™ processors with 1333/1066/667 MHz Front Side Bus (FSB).
Dual-core processors contain two physical CPU cores to meet demands for
more powerful processing. Intel ® Xeon™ processors incorporate the Intel ®
Hyper-Threading Technology and Extended Memory 64-bit Technology (EM64T).
The EM64T enables the support for 64-bit operation system, such as 64-bit
Windows ® and Linux.
Intel ® 5000P and Intel ® 6321ESB chipset
The Intel ® 5000P Memory Controller Hub (MCH) and the Intel ® 6321ESB provide
the vital interfaces for the motherboard.
The MCH provides the processor, quadri-channel FB-DIMM memory support, and
PCI Express interfaces. The Intel ® 6321ESB is a new generation server class I/O
controller hub that provides the interface for PCI 2.3, PCI Express, and PCIX.
Intel ® EM64T
The motherboard supports Intel ® processors with the Intel ® EM64T (Extended
Memory 64 Technology). The Intel ® EM64T feature allows your computer to run on
64-bit operating systems and access larger amounts of system memory for faster
and more efficient computing.
Enhanced Intel SpeedStep ® Technology (EIST)
The Enhanced Intel SpeedStep ® Technology (EIST) intelligently manages the
CPU resources by automatically adjusting the CPU voltage and core frequency
depending on the CPU loading and system speed or power requirement.
Onboard memory support
This motherboard features 2G onboard memory with Advanced Memory Buffer
(AMB) chips. It saves you money and trouble buying memory modules.
FB-DIMM memory support
This motherboard supports fully buffered DIMMs (FB-DIMMs), the latest memory
solution that extends memory capacity and provide high-speed, high-density
system memory peformance. FB-DIMMs use Advanced Memory Buffer (AMB)
chips that transmit signals between the memory modules and controllers with
improved signal integrity and reduced errors.
