The Intel 915GV Express chipset consists of the Intel® 82915GV Graphics and Memory Controller Hub (GMCH) and the Intel® ICH6. Together they provide superior integrated graphics with outstanding memory performance and high speed I/O. This chipset also supports present and future mainstream memory technologies, and next-generation I/O capability including PCI Express* and Intel® High Definition Audio.
Designed, validated and optimized for the Intel Pentium 4 processors 651 and 551 with HT Technology and the Celeron D processor 341 and 352, both in LGA-775 packaging
533 MHz and 800 MHz system bus provides scalability to the highest performance Intel Pentium 4 processor with HT Technology and Intel Celeron D processors
Support for dual-channel DDR2-400/533 SDRAM or DDR 333/400 SDRAM, provides additional scalability
Integrated analog VGA and sDVO outputs allow maximum flexibility when making display decisions
Intel® Graphics Media Accelerator 900 (Intel® GMA 900) provides superior integrated graphics in an integrated package
Direct Media Interface (DMI) delivers 2.0 GB/s concurrent bandwidth to maximize throughput between core chipset components
Seven PCI masters provide generous system expansion capability
Four x1 PCI Express channels for high-speed I/O
Can support four SATA-150 (serial) plus two ATA-100 (parallel) hard disk drives for high-speed storage
Integrated LAN controller provides direct connection to Platform LAN Connect (PLC) components
Eight integrated USB 2.0 port
High-definition audio features eight independent DMA audio engines or AC'97

† Look for systems with the Intel® Pentium® 4 Processor with HT Technology logo which your system vendor has verified utilize Hyper-Threading Technology. Performance will vary depending on the specific hardware and software you use. See www.intel.com/products/ht/hyperthreading_more.htm for information.
Δ 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/products/processor_number/ for details.
+ Intel® EM64T requires a computer system with a processor, chipset, BIOS, operating system, device drivers and applications enabled for Intel EM64T. Processor will not operate (including 32-bit operation) without an Intel EM64T-enabled BIOS. Performance will vary depending on your hardware and software configurations. Intel EM64T-enabled OS, BIOS, device drivers and applications may not be available. See www.intel.com/technology/architecture-silicon/intel64/ for more information including details on which processors support Intel EM64T or consult with your system vendor for more information.
