CP-945Gchipset

Platforms based on the Intel® 945G Express Chipset, combined with either the Intel® Pentium® D processor or
Intel® Pentium® 4 processor with Hyper-Threading Technology (HT Technology),deliver innovative features
and new benefits for both home and business.


The Intel 945G Express Chipset delivers outstanding system performance through high-bandwidth interfaces
such as dual-channel DDR2 memory, 1066/800 MHz system bus, PCI Express* x16 graphics port and
PCI Express x1 I/O ports, Serial ATA 3.0 Gbps and Hi-Speed USB 2.0 connectivity. This chipset includes the
Intel® GMA 950 graphics core which provides responsive graphics performance and stunning video playback.
In addition, the Intel 945G Express Chipset includes support for Intel® Active Management Technology, the
next generation of remote client network management.

Intel® 945G Express Chipset Features
Features Benefits
1066/800/533 MHz System Bus Supports Intel® Pentium® D processor, Intel® Pentium® 4 Processor with HT Technology and all other Intel® Pentium processors and Intel® Celeron® processors in the LGA775 socket, with scalability for future processor innovations.
PCI Express* x16 Interface Delivers greater than 3.5 times the bandwidth over the traditional AGP 8X interface and supports the latest high-performance graphics cards.
PCI Express* x1 Interface Offers up to 3.5 times the bandwidth over traditional PCI architecture, delivering faster access to peripheral devices and networking.
Intel® Graphics Media Accelerator 950 Boosts graphics performance to deliver richer visual color and picture clarity without the need for additional discrete grahics cards.
Intel® High Definition (HD) Audio Integrated audio support enables premium home theater sound and delivers advanced features such as multiple audio streams and jack re-tasking. The Dolby* PC Entertainment Experience¹ is available exclusively on systems with Intel High Definition Audio.
Intel® Matrix Storage Technology Provides protection against data loss from a hard drive failure, and quicker access to digital photo, video, and music files by supporting NCQ as well as RAID 0, 1, 5, and 10. Matrix RAID enables two RAID levels to be combined for data loss protection plus performance.
Intel® Active Management Technology Enables remote, down-the-wire management of out-of-band networked systems regardless of system state. Helps to improve IT efficiency, asset management and system security and availability.
Serial ATA* (SATA) 3 Gb/s High-speed storage interface supports faster transfer rate for improved data access.
Dual-channel DDR2 Memory Support Up to 10.7 GB/s of bandwith and 4GB memory addressability for faster system responsiveness and support for 64-bit computing.
Intel® Flex Memory Technology Gives users a more flexible memory upgrade option by allowing different memory sizes to be installed while maintaining dual-channel mode/performance.
Intel Serial Digital Video Output (SDVO) ports Dual SDVO ports offer increased display flexibility (digital CRT or TV) through the existing PCI Express* x16 connector using integrated graphics and third party manufactured add-in cards.
ADD2 cards increase system display output to a television, digital display, or simultaneously to a monitor and digital display.
Media Expansion Cards bring a multitude of video in/out features, including single or dual channel Television.
