MSI's K7N2G Socket A DDR mainboard supports AMD Athlon(tm) XP, Athlon(tm)
and Duron(tm) processors, and comes with Integrated NVIDIA® nForce(tm)2 IGP
(Integrated Graphic Processor) GPU and 3 DIMM slots which support up to 3GB
of DDR400 (PC3200), DDR333 (PC2700) and DDR266 (PC2100) SDRAM. Its Thermal
Diode Circuit is specially designed for AMD Athlon(tm) XP processors and
protects the CPU from overheating damage due to improper operation or
cooling fan failure.
Its Dual Channel Architecture doubles the memory bandwidth and boosts system
and graphics performance, which leads to more productivity.
As a full-featured mainboard with the latest design for the highest
performance, MSI K7N2G is equiped with the latest AGP 8x design (AGP 3.0
also compatible with AGP 2.0) with a maximum transfer rate of 2.1GB/sec for
huge data transfer and efficient image processing. Further the board
features an onboard 10/100 Mbps Ethernet LAN controller, integrated APU
(audio processing unit), and IEEE 1394 ports (Optional).
MSI's K7N2G also follows "Color Management" as all new MSI motherboards. The
Dual Bank of DDR Memory is indentified as Green and Purple individually.
While the AGP slot in AGP 8x is red-colored.
To enhance overall system performance, MSI K7N2G is Serial ATA ready
(Optional), advanced users only need to install Serial ATA-compatible hard
drives to enjoy super-speed data transfer at 150MB/sec, which is faster than
ATA133 at 133MB/sec. Moreover, the Serial ATA ribbon cable is thinner and
longer to solve cooling problems inside the case and facilitate hard drive
connection.
The 5.1 channel APU integrated to K7N2G allows users who want quality sound
effects to realize the home theater dream by simply connecting six speakers
to the output. It is ideal for enjoying 3D games and DVDs.
