Sempron. With an integrated low-latency high-bandwidth DDRIII memory
controller and a highly-scalable Hyper Transport technology-based system bus up to
1000MHZ. By implementing the new generation MCP61P Platform Processor Chipset
integrated graphic processor which adopts the innovative 90nm process technology,
the GeForce 6100 Graphics Core integrated video graphics array brings more
compatibility, stability and reliability with the widest range of games and applications
to the desktop platform system. The motherboards support the stunning video
playback in all formats and with superb picture clarity that brings the best visual
experience and ultra-realistic effects to the users. MCP61P Platform Processor Chipset
motherboard series are the real cost-effective and powerful integrated multimedia
platform solutions and meet the demanding usage of computing now and future.
The MCP61P series motherboards support new generation Socket AM3 processors
with an integrated DDRIII memory controller for Dual channel DDRIII 800/DDRIII
1066/DDRIII 1333 module up to 8GB. And MCP61P it also accommodates ULTRA
ATA 133 connectors and Serial ATA2 with RAID 0,1 functions which support up to
one IDE and two Serial ATA2 devices to accelerate hard disk drives and guarantee
the data security without failure in advanced computing performance.
The MCP61P motherboards provide 10/100 PCI-E LAN chip which supports
10/100Mbps data transfer rate. And the embedded 6-channel HD Audio CODEC is fully
compatible with Sound Blaster Pro
®
standard that offer you with the home cinema
quality and satisfying software compatibility.
The MCP61P motherboard series offer one PCI-Express x16 by16-Lane graphics slot
of 4Gbyte/sec data transfer rate at each relative direction which gets 3.5 times of
bandwidth more than AGP8X and it’s up to a peak concurrent bandwidth of
8Gbyte/sec at full speed to guarantee the performance and compatibility of GPU
graphics add-in cards. The MCP61P motherboards also carry one 32-bit PCI slot
guarantee the rich connectivity for the I/O peripheral devices.
Embedded USB controller as well as capability of expanding to 6 of USB2.0 functional
ports delivering 480Mb/s bandwidth and rich connectivity, these motherboards meet
the future USB demands which are also equipped with hardware monitor function on
system to monitor and protect your system and maintain your non-stop business
computing.
