785G Northbridge is the latest AMD chipset designed for both
HT1.0 and 5200MT/s HyperTransport™ 3.0 (HT 3.0) interface speed and
external graphics in PCI Express 2.0 standard. It features the integrated
ATI Radeon™ HD 4200 GPU and fully Directx 10.1 compliant.
Dual channel DDR2 1200(O.C.)/1066 support
This motherboard supports DDR2 1200(O.C.)/1066, which provides faster
data transfer rate and more bandwidth to increase memory data transfer
rate and computing efciency. This enhances system performance in 3D
graphics and other memory demanding applications.
Due to AM3/AM2+ CPU limitation, only one DDR2 1200(O.C.)/1066 is supported per
channel. When four DDR2 1200(O.C.)/1066 DIMMs are installed, all DIMMs run at
800MHz frequency by default for system stability.
