Functional Description
Processor Support
The M-302 motherboard supports Intel processors in the LGA775
package in a range of 533/800/1066 MHz Front Side Bus (FSB).
Providing high-performance computing and energy-efficiency, the
M-302 is designed for Intel® Core™2 Duo, Intel® Pentium® Dual-
Core, Intel® Pentium® 4, Intel® Celeron®, and Intel® Celeron® D
processors. The M-302 supports dual-core processors containing
multiple physical cores and dedicated L2 caches to meet the ever-
increasing demands of industrial computing.
Intel® Q965 Express chipset
The Intel® Q965 Express chipset, featuring the Intel® Q965
graphics memory controller hub (GMCH) and the Intel® ICH8DO
I/O controller hub, provides the vital interfaces for the mother-
board. The Intel® Q965 comes with the Intel® Graphics Media
Accelerator 3000, an integrated graphics engine with enhanced
3D/2D graphics rendering and video capabilities. The GMCH also
provides the interface for the processor and system memory.
The Intel® ICH8DO Southbridge is the eighth generation of Intel
I/O controller hub that provides key interfaces such as PCI
Express®, USB 2.0, and SATA II.
Dual-channel DDR2 memory
To meet the requirements of memory-intensive applications, the
M-302 has a dual-channel memory architecture supporting DDR2
533/667/800 MHz DIMMs. The high-bandwidth memory specifica-
tion, meets the requirements of the latest 3D graphics, multimedia,
and network application, and boosts system performance by elimi-
nating bottlenecks.
