The Intel® Desktop Board G33FB is Microsoft Windows Vista Premium Ready. The Intel® 3 Series Chipset fully supports the visually stunning Windows Aero user interface with amazing transition effects and realistic animations.
PCI Express Architecture PCI Express is the latest I/O interconnect technology that will replace the existing PCI. With a bus bandwidth 4 times higher than that of AGP 8X interface, PCI Express x16 bus performs much better than AGP 8X in applications such as 3D gaming. PCI Express x1 also outperforms PCI interface with its exceptional high bandwidth up to 500MB/s. The high speed PCI Express interface creates new usages on desktop PCs e.g., Gigabit LAN, 1394b, and high-speed RAID systems.
Features
Socket This motherboard features a Socket 775 design. The Zero Insertion Force (ZIF) style socket makes it easy to install and upgrade your processor.
Chipset The Intel G33FBC motherboard is based on the Intel G33 Express Northbridge chipset. It supports Intel Core 2 Quad and Core 2 Duo Processors, with 800/1066/1333MHz Front Side Bus support.
Memory Expansion The Intel G33FBC provides 4 DIMM sockets using Dual Channel 240-pin DDR2 with a total capacity of up to 8GB-64bit. You can install DDR2 667/800MHz Memory.
