Intel G33 DG33TLM LGA-775 DDR2 Micro-ATX motherboard

SKU CH-F2W3-AEZWJ MPN G33

A Micro-ATX board with an Intel G33 chipset, LGA-775 socket and four DDR2 slots supporting up to 8 GB

  • Supports quad-core processing with Intel Core 2 Quad CPUs
  • Four DDR2 slots accept up to 8 GB total memory
  • Integrated Intel GMA 3100 graphics handles display output
  • SATA 300 and Ultra ATA/133 provide drive connectivity
  • Front-side bus speeds of 1333, 1066 and 800 MHz match processor choice

Core 2 Quad micro-ATX board

The Intel G33 Express motherboard fits the micro-ATX form factor and uses an LGA-775 socket. It supports Core 2 Quad, Core 2 Duo and Celeron processors with front-side bus speeds of 1333, 1066 and 800 MHz. Four DDR2 slots accept up to 8 GB of memory.

Onboard graphics and legacy I/O

Integrated Intel Graphics Media Accelerator 3100 provides video output without a discrete card. The board includes SATA-300 and Ultra ATA/133 controllers for both modern and older storage devices. Intel Viiv technology aims to improve media handling.

DDR2 memory ceiling and FSB limits

Memory is limited to DDR2-800/PC2-6400 and DDR2-667/PC2-5300 standards, capping total capacity at 8 GB. Processor bus tops out at 1333 MHz, so newer CPUs requiring higher speeds or different sockets cannot be used.

Questions about this item

Will the DDR2-800 memory modules need replacing if I upgrade the processor later?

The board supports DDR2-800 and DDR2-667 standards across four slots up to 8 GB total, so existing modules can stay when swapping among supported LGA-775 CPUs.

What limits sustained performance first, the 1333 MHz front-side bus or the integrated GMA 3100 graphics?

The GMA 3100 uses shared system memory and has no dedicated video memory, so graphics throughput typically becomes the bottleneck before the front-side bus saturates.

How much heat and noise should I expect from the board when it runs all day with a Core 2 Quad installed?

The G33 chipset and integrated GMA 3100 are low-power components; with a standard LGA-775 cooler the board itself adds minimal heat and no audible noise beyond the CPU fan.
