LGA1155 socket for Intel® 3rd/2nd Generation Core(TM) i7/Core(TM) i5/Core(TM) i3/ Pentium® / Celeron® Processors

This motherboard supports Intel® 3rd/2nd Generation Core(TM) i7/Core(TM) i5/Core(TM) i3/ Pentium® / Celeron® Processors in LGA1155 package with memory and PCI Express controllers integrated to support 2-channel (2 DIMMs) DDR3 memory and 16 PCI Express 3.0 or 2.0 lanes. This provides great graphics performance. Intel® 3rd/2nd Generation Core(TM) i7/Core(TM) i5/Core(TM) i3/ Pentium® / Celeron® Processors are among the most powerful and energy efficient CPUs in the world.

Intel® H61 Express Chipset

The Intel® H61 Express Chipset is the latest single-chipset design to support the new 1155 socket Intel® Core(TM) i7 / Core(TM) i5 / Core(TM) i3 2nd generation processors. It provides improved performance by utilizing serial point-to-point links, allowing increased bandwidth and stability.

Dual-Channel,DDR3 2200(O.C.)/2133(O.C.)/2000(O.C.)/1866(O.C.)/1600/1333/1066 MHz support

The motherboard supports DDR3 memory that features data transfer rates of DDR3 2200(O.C.)/2133(O.C.)/2000(O.C.)/1866(O.C.)/1600/1333/1066 MHz to meet the higher bandwidth requirements of the latest 3D graphics, multimedia, and Internet applications. The dual-channel DDR3 architecture enlarges the bandwidth of your system memory to boost system performance.

PCIe 3.0 Ready

The latest PCI Express bus standard delivers improved encoding for twice the performance of current PCIe 2.0. Total bandwidth for a x16 link reaches a maximum of 32GB/s, double the 16GB/s of PCIe 2.0 (in x16 mode). PCIe 3.0 provides users unprecedented data speeds, combined with the convenience and seamless transition offered by complete backward compatibility with PCIe 1.0 and PCIe 2.0 devices. It's a must-have feature for PC users aiming to improve and optimize graphics performance, as well as have the latest, most future-proof technology.

High-definition Visual Enjoyment

Enjoy high quality visuals with a digital display monitor via HDMI or DVI output. High-Definition Multimedia Interface (HDMI) is a set of digital video standards that delivers mulit-channel audio and uncompressed digital video for full HD 1080p visuals through a single cable. Supporting HDCP copy protection such as HD DVD and Blu-ray discs, HDMI provides you with the highest quality home theater experience.
