Performance tests and ratings are measured using specific computer systems and/or components and reflect the approximate performance of Intel products as measured by those tests. Any difference in system hardware or software design or configuration may affect actual performance.

ģ Six PCI Express* x1 device/peripheral support available when combined with theIntelŪ 82801GR (ICH7R) I/O Controller only.

† Hyper-Threading Technology (HT Technology) requires a computer system with an IntelŪ Processor supporting HT Technology and an HT Technology enabled chipset, BIOS, and operating system. Performance will vary depending on the specific hardware and software you use. See www.intel.com/products/ht/hyperthreading_more.htm for more information including details on which processors support HT Technology.
