![]() The number of PCIe Express x1 lanes have been slightly reduced to six from eight while the number of USB 2.0 ports supported are also cut by two. Given its mainstream positioning, the H55 chipset is unsurprisingly only capable of supporting a single PCIe 2.0 x16 graphics card, unlike the P55 and its CrossFire/SLI capabilities. This additional interface for handling video signals is one of the major differences between the H55 and the previously launched P55 chipset.īoth chipsets support dual-channel DDR3 memory (up to 1333MHz) though the PCIe and memory controllers are now both on the processor. The presence of the graphics core on the Clarkdale processor meant that there's a new Flexible Display Interface (FDI) to handle the issue of transmitting the video signals such that they can be output via HDMI, DVI or even DisplayPort. It's a single-chip solution, with the platform control hub (PCH) communicating with the processor via DMI (and not QPI like the Nehalem Core i7s). The second LGA1156 compatible chipset to be released, the Intel H55 Express chipset, has quite a few features in common with the P55 Express chipset.
