Introduction

Thank you for choosing the H61H2-AS motherboard. This motherboard is a high performance, enhanced

function motherboard designed to support the LGA1155 socket processors for high-end business or personal

desktop markets.

This motherboard is based on Intel® H61 Chipset for best desktop platform solution. H61 is a single-chip,

highly integrated, high performance Hyper-Threading peripheral controller, unmatched by any other single

chip-device controller. This motherboard supports up to 8 GB of system memory with dual channel DDR3

1333/ 1066 SO-DIMM. It supports two DDR3 sockets with up to maximum memory of 8 GB, intended for

Graphics Interface, is fully compliant to the PCI Express Base Specification revision 2.0. In addition, one PCI

Express slot is supported. It implements an EHCI (Enhanced Host Controller Interface) compliant interface

that provides fourteen USB 2.0 ports (six USB 2.0 ports at the back panel and four USB 2.0 headers support

additional eight USB 2.0 ports).

The motherboard is equipped with advanced full set of I/O ports in the rear panel, one DVI(co-lay HDMI) port,

one D-sub (VGA) port, one Lan port, four USB 2.0 ports, and audio jacks for microphone, line-in and line-out.

In addition, this motherboard supports 2.5 Gb/s bandwidth. It implements an EHCI

compliant interface that provides 480 Mb/s bandwidth for eight USB 2.0 ports. supporting two SATA

connectors for HDD and ODD with maximum transfer rate up to 3.0 Gb/s each.

l Support one PCI Express slot

l Integrated USB 2.0 Host Controller supporting up to twelve USB2.0 ports

l 8 USB 2.0 ports supported

l Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI) support

l Integrated Graphics Support with PAVP 1.5

l • Intel® High Definition Audio Controller

Memory

l Supports DDR3 1066/1333 DDR3 SO-DIMM with Dual-channel architecture

l Accommodates two unbuffered DIMMs and Support Intel Flex Memory Mode

l Up to 4 GB per DIMM with maximum memory size up to 8 GB

Onboard LAN

The onboard LAN provides the following features:

l Supports PCI ExpressTM 1.1

l Integrated 10/100 /1000 transceiver

l Wake-on-LAN and remote wake-up support

Audio

l 5.1 Channel High Definition Audio Codec

l ADCs support 44.1k/48k/96kHz sample rate

l Meets Microsoft WLP 3.10 Vista premium and mobile PCs audio requirements
