ASUS P5G-MX LGA 775 motherboard

This Micro ATX board uses the Intel 945GC chipset and fits LGA 775 processors. It supports DDR2 memory up to 2 GB. It suits repairs or basic legacy builds that require this specific socket and chipset combination. Buyers needing higher memory capacity or newer CPU interfaces cannot use this board.

Thermals noise and power

The Intel 945GC chipset and LGA 775 platform draw modest power in normal desktop use. Passive chipset cooling and standard case airflow keep temperatures stable without added noise. No active cooling components are included on the board itself. Builders seeking silent operation or low-power targets should verify their specific CPU choice.

Bundled accessories

The package includes the motherboard, one SATA cable, the rear I/O shield and a metal battery. No original box or additional cables are supplied. The single SATA cable connects one drive; extra cables are needed for multiple devices. The I/O shield simplifies case installation for this Micro ATX form factor.
