Intel® 3200 and 3210 Chipset

Intel® 3200 and 3210 Chipset

The Intel® 3200 and Intel® 3210 Chipsets are designed for use with Intel® Xeon® processors 30001 sequence, in the LGA775 package in UP server platforms. The chipset contains two components: Memory Controller Hub (MCH) and Intel® I/O Controller Hub 9 (ICH9). The MCH provides the interface to the processor, main memory, PCI Express*, and the ICH9. The ICH9 I/O Controller Hub provides a multitude of I/O related functions.

The Intel® 3200 Chipset supports one PCI Express x8 port for I/O. Intel® 3210 Chipset supports two PCI Express x8 ports or one PCI Express x16 port for I/O.

Features and benefits
Supports processors Provides four execution cores in one physical processor helping increase system responsiveness and performance for multi-tasking. Also supports dual-core processors.
1333/1066/800 MHz FSB Supports Intel® Xeon® processor 3000 sequence and processors in the LGA775 socket, with scalability for future processor innovations.
Supports Intel® 64 architecture Runs 64-bit code and accesses larger amounts of memory while also capable of running existing 32-bit applications.
Memory Support for Dual Channel DDR2 800/667 with ECC support Improved memory speed over previous generation and provides ECC for data integrity protection. Delivers up to 12.8 GB/s (DDR2 800 dual 6.4 GB/s) of bandwidth and 8 GB memory addressability for faster system responsiveness and support of 64-bit computing.
PCI Express* I/O Interfaces supports 1 x8 with the Intel® 3200 Chipset, and 2 x8 or 1 x16 with the Intel® 3210 Chipset The Intel 3210 Chipset supports flexible I/O with 2x8 or 1x16 PCI Express, and the Intel 3200 Chipset provides a single PCI Express I/O x8 port . Also provides configurable Intel® I/O Controller Hub (ICH9R) 6x1 PCI Express ports to meet higher I/O server demands. Multiple interfaces eliminates the need for bridge solutions and reduces server bottlenecks.
Serial ATA* (SATA) 3 Gb/s High-speed storage interface supports faster transfer rate for improved data access.
Intel® Matrix Storage Technology With a second hard drive added, provides quicker access to data files with RAID 0, 5, and 10, and greater data protection against a hard disk drive failure with RAID 1, 5, and 10. Support for external SATA* (eSATA*) enables the full SATA interface speed outside the chassis, up to 3 Gb/s.
Enhanced Intel SpeedStep® Technology Enables focused platform and software power management to lower average power consumption while maintaining application performance and improving acoustics.
PCI-X Interface Support legacy PCI-X server adapters using the Intel® 6702PXH 64-bit PCI hub.
Supports Hyper-Threading Technology Delivers higher processing throughput and faster response times for multi-tasking, multi-threading workload environments.

1. Intel® processor numbers are not a measure of performance. Processor numbers differentiate features within each processor family, not across different processor families. See www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/processors/processor-numbers.html for details.


2. Intel® Matrix Storage Technology requires a motherboard with the Intel® 82801IR (ICH9R) I/O Controller Hub System. The system must also have the RAID controller in the BIOS enabled and the Intel Matrix Storage Technology software driver installed. Please consult your system vendor for more information.


3. Requires an Intel® Hyper-Threading Technology (Intel® HT Technology)-enabled system, check with your PC manufacturer. Performance will vary depending on the specific hardware and software used. Not available on the Intel® Core™ i5-750. For more information, including details on which processors support HT technology, visit www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/architecture-and-technology/hyper-threading/hyper-threading-technology.html.
