AMD Athlon 64 FX/ 64 X2 / 64 Processor The leading-edge performance and unparallel technology of AMD Athlon 64 socket AM2 series processor has built its strength on the well-known AMD64 framework which consisted of 64-bit computing platform, HyperTransport Technology, and integrated memory controller. The latest Athlon 64 socket AM2 processor brings the power and multitasking performance on the desktop platform and ensures superior performance on mission critical business applications. NVIDIA GeForce 6100 / nforce 430 GPU The brand new NVIDIA GeForce 6100 / NVIDIA nforce 430GPU features CineFX 3.0 Engine. This unique combination of 6100 GPU creates a single motherboard featuring a worldclass DX9, Shader Model 3.0 GPU for faster and smoother game-play, a high quality video processing engine for advance quality of video and DVD playback. PCI Express Interface Revolutionary PCI Express interface provides scalable bandwidth for multi-purpose usage. PCI- E x16 interface doubles the bandwidth of graphics interface of previous generation thus delivering the utmost gaming experience. PCI-E x1interface provides twice the bandwidth of PCI interface up to 250MB/s for new generation I/O peripheral devices. Superior Dual channel DDR2 800 Architecture AMD Athlon64 FX/ 64 X2 achieves the milestone for desktop computing with the CPUintegrated memory controller. This platform supports dual channel DDR2 800 memory architecture with high bandwidth of up to 12.8 GB/s and shorter memory accessing latency thus delivering the greatest memory performance.

3 SATA 3Gb/s & RAID This platform supports reliable storage solution for enhanced data protection and data accessing performance. Serial ATA 3Gb/s is firstly introduced in this platform to provide blazingly 3Gb/s bus bandwidth thus higher disk performance. The NVIDIA RAID allows multidisk designs to be set up as RAID 0, 1, based on users' priority of protection/ performance. This NVIDIA RAID function makes the RAID even more accessible by introducing the innovative windows-based facility. High Definition Audio Experience home theater-quality sound with your PC using High Definition Audio for enhanced multi-channel audio, improved voice and communication input, and multi-streaming capability. DualBIOS - Patented Dual Hardware BIOS Protection DualBIOS is a GIGABYTE patented technology that automatically recovers BIOS data when main BIOS has crashed or failed. Featuring 2 physical BIOS ROMs integrated onboard, GIGABYTE DualBIOS allows quick and seamless recovery from BIOS damage or failure due to viruses or improper BIOS updating. * The specification and pictures are subject to change without notice. * All trademarks and logos are the properties of their respective holders. * Due to standard PC architecture, a certain amount of memory is reserved for system usage and therefore the actual memory size is less than the stated amount.
