The Intel P35DP motherboard is a full size ATX motherboard with an LGA-775 socket for Core 2 Duo and similar processors. Features are:

• Form Factor

ATX (12.00 inches by 9.60 inches [304.80 millimeters by 243.84 millimeters])

• Socket

LGA 775

• Supports 45nm & 65nm Intel Core2 Quad processors with a 1333 or 1066 MHz FSB
• Supports Intel Core2 Duo with a 1333/1066/800 MHz FSB
• Supports Intel Pentium with an 800 MHz FSB
• Supports Intel Celeron with an 800 MHz FSB

• Legacy I/O controller for serial port via header
• Intel 82566DC Gigabit Ethernet
• Twelve USB 2.0 ports
• Six SATA 3.0 Gbps ports, including 1 eSATA port via an ICH9R southbridge (NCQ/AHCI support, great for heavy disk I/O)
• Two IEEE-1394a (AKA Firewire) interfaces (1 external port, 1 internal header)
• Internal header for an IR transceiver
• One PATA controller supporting UDMA 33 and ATA-66/100/133

Other Notes

• Mythbuntu 8.04 detected everything from the start except for the CPU temp sensor (that required an upgrade to lm_sensors for the new chipset ID info).
• AC3/DTS pass through worked perfectly without any additional configuration (besides turning the SPDIF on via alsamixer).
