ASUS P5Q SE Plus LGA 775 Intel P45 Motherboard

This ATX motherboard uses the Intel P45 chipset and fits the LGA 775 socket. It supports DDR2 memory up to 16 GB maximum capacity. The board is supplied new and includes a SATA cable plus an I/O back panel.

Suits builders maintaining

This board will not serve buyers who need modern memory types, newer CPU sockets, or higher memory ceilings. It also lacks the accessories that typically ship with a retail box, so builders expecting a full accessory kit should look elsewhere.

DDR2 16 GB maximum memory support decides fit

The 16 GB limit is the defining specification for this platform. If the intended workload requires more memory than this cap allows, the motherboard cannot meet the requirement and a different platform must be chosen.

Questions about this item

How is the ATX motherboard installed and which step is often missed?

Mount the board on standoffs in an ATX case, connect the main and CPU power headers, then fit the supplied I/O back panel before securing the screws.

What maintenance will the board need later?

The included SATA cable may wear from repeated drive swaps; keep a spare cable on hand for reliable data links.

What limit appears first under sustained use?

The 16GB DDR2 memory ceiling caps multitasking headroom long before the P45 chipset or LGA 775 socket reach thermal limits.
