ASUS P5GC-MX LGA 775 Board

The ASUS P5GC-MX is a Micro ATX motherboard built around the Intel 945GC chipset and the LGA 775 socket. It accepts DDR2 memory up to a maximum of 2GB and includes a single SATA cable and a chassis I/O back panel in the box. The board is new and ships without original packaging.

Suits LGA 775 repairs and basic legacy builds

This board fits technicians restoring an LGA 775 system or users assembling a simple office PC with period-correct parts. It is not for buyers who need more than 2GB of system memory or anyone requiring modern expansion interfaces. The Micro ATX layout limits the number of add-in cards that can be installed.

LGA 775 socket and Intel 945GC chipset

The CPU socket and chipset combination determines which processors and memory modules will work with this board. Only CPUs designed for the LGA 775 package and the 945GC platform are compatible. DDR2 modules must not exceed the 2GB ceiling. Verify your processor and memory against these constraints before purchase.

Questions about this item

How much heat or power draw should I expect from the Intel 945GC chipset during all-day use?

The Intel 945GC chipset is a low-power northbridge with no fan, so heat output is modest and a standard case airflow is usually sufficient for continuous operation.

Which components must I already own to make this LGA 775 board boot?

You need a compatible LGA 775 processor, DDR2 memory modules up to 2 GB total, an ATX power supply with a 20-pin main connector, and a SATA or IDE drive for storage.

Will my existing PCI add-in cards work in the expansion slots on this Micro ATX board?

The board provides standard PCI slots, so most legacy PCI sound, network or controller cards will fit and function alongside the integrated graphics.
