Introduction of AMD 780G Motherboards
1-1 Features of motherboard
The AMD 780G chipset motherboard series are based on the latest AMD 780G Chipset and
the SB700 chipset which supports the innovative 64-bit AMD Socket AM2+ dual core
multi-tasking Socket AM2+ AMD quad core Phenom™ processors. With an integrated
low-latency high-bandwidth DDRII memory controller and a highly-scalable Hyper Transport
technology-based system bus up to 2 GHZ. AMD 780G Platform Processor Chipset motherboard
series deliver the outstanding system performance and professional desktop platform solution
with the advantages of 64-bit AMD Socket AM2+ and Socket AM2 AMD Phenom™ FX,
AMD Phenom™, Athlon64 FX, Athlon64 X2
，
Athlon64 & Sempron processors.
The AMD 780G Series motherboards support new generation Socket AM2+ processors with
an integrated DDRII memory controller for Dual channel DDRII533 /DDRII667
/DDRII800/DDRII1066(AM2 Sempron processors only support up to DDRII667 memory)
DDRII Module up to 4 GB. The motherboard also provides an integrated DDRII 64MBGPU
Memory. The motherboard is embedded with SB700 chipset of providing ULTRA ATA 133
connector and Serial ATA2 with RAID 0 ,1 , 10 and JBOD functions which support up to one
IDE and six Serial ATA2 devices to accelerate hard disk drives and guarantee the data
security without failure in advanced computing performance.
The AMD 780G motherboards provid
e
10/100/1000 LAN function with
RealTek
RTL8111CVC PCI-E Gigabit LAN which supports optional 10/100/1000Mbps data transfer
rate. And the embedded HD 6-channel ALC662 HD Audio CODEC is fully compatible with
Sound Blaster Pro standards that offer you with the home cinema quality and satisfying
software compatibility.
The AMD 780G Series motherboards deliver outstanding value and performance for gamers,
with a true bandwidth design for Multi-GPU configurations. This high bandwidth architecture
in the AMD 780G chipset is combined with the flexibility for single or dual card
configurations. The AMD 780G chipset provide one x16@16 lane PCI Express 2.0 slots to
support simultaneous operation of graphics cards for astonishing performance with brilliant
and intense 3D graphics.
AMD 780G Series motherboard series offer one PCI-Express2.0 x16@ 16 lane graphics slot
deliver up to 8Gbyte/sec data transfer rate at each relative direction and up 16Gbyte/sec
concurrently. Besides AMD 780G Series motherboard series offer one PCI-Express2.0 x16@
4 lane graphics slots deliver up to 2Gbyte/sec data transfer rate at each relative direction and
up 4Gbyte/sec concurrently and one PCI-Express2.0 x1 graphics slots deliver up to 1Gb/sec
data transfer rate concurrently.
The AMD 780G motherboards also carry two 32-bit PCI slots guarantee the rich
connectivity for the I/O peripheral devices.
