Specifications:


For those without the need for onboard RAID or Firewire, but the need to keep costs down, the IS7-E is the board to get. Like the other boards in the IS7 series it uses the tried and true Intel tested Springdale-PE chipset for Hyper-Threading Pentium 4 processors. It comes with, Dual DDR 400, AGP 8X, and softmenu Technology. This board makes for an affordable, super-stable system.

Enhanced 800MHz FSB
The 800MHz FSB increases bandwidth and improves overall system performance.

Serial ATA 150MB/s data transfer rate
Serial ATA is an evolutionary replacement for the Parallel ATA storage interface. This new high-speed interface boosts data transfer rates to up to 150 MB/sec. More flexible power tolerances allow for smaller and more efficient cables.


6-Channel Audio and S/PDIF Out interface
Lets you enjoy 6-channel audio without having to buy advanced sound cards.

USB 2.0 Supports 480MB/s data transfer rate
Supports speeds up to 480 Mb/sec, approximately forty times faster than conventional USB 1.1


ABIT SoftMenu Overclocking
The overclocking function includes CPU frequency, multiplier, CPU Vcore, memory voltage and AGP voltage adjustment available to maximize your system performance.
