Description
The Intel H61 Express chipset is the single-chipset design to support the 1155 socket Intel Core i7, Core i5, Core i3, Pentium, and Celeron processors. It provides improved performance by utilizing serial point-to-point links, which allows increased bandwidth and stability.
The motherboard supports DDR3 memory that features data transfer rates of 1600/1333/1066 MHz to meet the higher bandwidth requirements of the 3D graphics, multimedia, and Internet applications. The dual-channel DDR3 architecture enlarges the bandwidth of your system memory to boost system performance.
PCI Express 3.0 (PCIe 3.0) is the PCI Express bus standard with improved encoding schemes that provides twice the performance of the current PCIe 2.0. The total bandwidth for a x16 link reaches a maximum of 32 Gb/s, double the 20 Gb/s of PCIe 2.0 (in x16 mode). As such, PCIe 3.0 provides users an unprecedented data speeds, combined with the convenience and seamless transition offered by complete backward compatibility with PCIe 1.0 and PCIe 2.0 devices.
