The motherboard uses an LGA775 type of Intel Core
D/Pentium 4/Celeron D that carries the following features:
• Accommodates Intel Core
D processors
• Supports a system bus (FSB) of 800/533 MHz
• Supports "Hyper-Threading" technology CPU
"Hyper-Threading" technology enables the operating system into thinking it's hooked
up to two processors, allowing two threads to be run in parallel, both on separate
"logical" processors within the same physical processor.
Chipset
The 945GC Northbridge (NB) and ICH7 Southbridge (SB) chipsets are based on an
innovative and scalable architecture with proven reliability and performance.
