Intel Core2 Quad,Intel Core2 Duo,Intel Pentium Dual-Core,Intel Pentium 4,Intel Celeron The ASUS P5E3 Deluxe/WiFi-AP motherboard supports the Socket 775 Intel® Core™2 Processor Ready
This motherboard supports the latest Intel® Core™2 processors in LGA775 package. It also can support Intel® next generation 45nm Multi-Core CPU.
With new Intel® Core™ microarchitecture technology and 1600 / 1333 / 1066 / 800 MHz FSB, Intel® Core™2 processor
is one of the most powerful and energy efficient CPU in the world.
Intel® X38 Chipset
Intel X38 |Intel ICH9R
This Intel® X38 Express Chipset is the latest chipset designed to support 8GB of dual-channel DDR3 1333/1066/800 architecture,
1333/1066/800 FSB (Front Side Bus), Dual PCI-E 2.0 x16 graphics and multi-core CPUs. With the specially included Intel® Fast Memory Access technology,
available memory bandwidth usage is optimized and memory access latency is reduced - allowing very fast memory speeds.
CrossFire
CrossFire Technology
The CrossFire boosts image quality along with rendering speed,
eliminating the need to scale down screen resolutions to get the high image quality you want.
CrossFire ignites with the higher antialiasing, anisotropic filtering, shading, and texture settings you desire.
Adjust your display configurations, experiment with your advanced 3D settings, and check the effect with a real-time
3D-rendered preview within AMDs Catalyst™ Control Center to rule your CrossFire system.
Memory
4-Memory Slots 240-pin DDR3 1800(OC)/1600 (OC) /1333 /1066 /800 memory Maximum RAM 8GB
Dual-Channel DDR3 1800(O.C.)/1333
The X38 motherboard supports DDR3 memory that features data transfer rates of 1800(O.C.)/1600(O.C.)/1333/1066/800 MHz to meet
the higher bandwidth requirements of the latest operation system, 3D graphics, multimedia, and Internet applications. The
dual-channel DDR3 motherboard architecture doubles the bandwidth of your system memory to boost system performance, eliminating
bottlenecks with peak bandwidths of up to 17 GB/s. Furthermore, the supply voltage for the memory is reduced from 1.8 V
for DDR2 to just 1.5 V for DDR3. This voltage reduction limits the power
consumption and heat generation of DDR3 which makes it an ideal memory solution.
Expansion Slots
2 x PCI-Express X16
1 x PCI-Express X16 (with X4 or X1 single)
