After some intense rumors, Intel has officially released its D101GGC motherboard, based on ATI’s Radeon Xpress 200 chipset. The core logic, which includes Radeon X300-based graphics, is aimed at socket 775 Pentium 4 and Celeron D processors. The board uses ATI’s own IXP 450 south bridge. The deal is expected to boost ATI’s presence in the integrated GPU segment and relieve Intel of a shortage of its own cheaper models. The D101GGC’s full specs are as follows:

800 MHz Hyper-Transport FSB
DDR400/PC3200
2x DIMM sockets (2 GB max.)
1x Ultra DMA 133 port
4x Serial ATA ports
1x PCI-E x16 slot
1x PCI-E x1 slot
2x PCI slots
Ethernet 10/100 (RTL8101L)
8-channel audio (ALC861)
8x USB 2.0 ports
microATX form factor
