Socket LGA 775 micro-ATX board

The GIGABYTE GA-G41MT-S2PT rev.2.1 is a micro-ATX motherboard built around the Intel G41 chipset for LGA 775 processors. It accepts Core 2 Extreme, Core 2 Quad, Core 2 Duo, Pentium and Celeron CPUs and supports up to 8 GB of DDR3 memory across two DIMM slots. The board measures 24.4 cm by 19.4 cm and includes a single PCI Express x16 slot, one PCI Express x1 slot and two legacy PCI slots. Integrated peripherals cover 7.1-channel audio via a Realtek ALC887 codec and gigabit LAN through a Realtek RTL8111E controller.

Suits legacy upgrades; not for modern builds

This board suits enthusiasts repairing or upgrading an existing LGA 775 system that relies on DDR3 memory and SATA storage. Builders who need more than two memory slots, a newer CPU socket or additional PCI Express lanes should look elsewhere. The four SATA II ports and eight USB 2.0 ports cover basic connectivity, while the micro-ATX form factor fits compact chassis. Refurbished units ship without original packaging and include only the motherboard, I/O shield and one SATA cable.

Two DDR3 slots cap memory at 8 GB

The decisive specification is the two DDR3 DIMM slots that limit total system memory to 8 GB. Any build requiring 16 GB or more cannot use this motherboard regardless of processor choice. All other features — PCI Express x16 graphics, gigabit Ethernet, 7.1 audio and four SATA II ports — scale around this memory ceiling. Buyers must verify that their operating system and applications will run within 8 GB before selecting this board.

Questions about this item

How much power does the Intel G41 chipset and Realtek RTL8111E LAN draw during all-day operation?

The Intel G41 chipset and Realtek RTL8111E LAN are low-power components, but total system draw depends on the installed LGA 775 processor and memory configuration.

Which LGA 775 processor and DDR3 memory must I already own to use this board?

A supported LGA 775 CPU such as Core 2 Quad, Core 2 Duo, Pentium or Celeron plus up to 8 GB of DDR3 across the two DIMM slots are required.

Will my existing PCI expansion cards and SATA II drives work with the PCI slots and 4X SATA II ports?

Yes, the board provides two PCI slots, one PCI Express x1 slot and four SATA II connectors for legacy add-in cards and drives.
