Intel DQ57TM Micro ATX Q57 DDR3 Desktop Motherboard

The Intel DQ57TM is a micro-ATX motherboard designed for business and performance computing. It supports Intel Core i7, i5, and i3 processors with an LGA1156 socket, making it compatible with a wide range of Intel CPUs. The motherboard is built around the Intel Q57 Express chipset, which provides robust connectivity and support for advanced features like Intel vPro technology. This technology enables remote management and maintenance of business PCs, enhancing security and productivity.

The DQ57TM is ideal for small form factor builds due to its compact micro-ATX size of 9.6 by 9.6 inches. It offers a variety of expansion options, including one PCIe x16 slot for a dedicated graphics card, two PCIe x1 slots, and one PCI slot. This makes it suitable for both integrated graphics with Intel HD Graphics and discrete GPU upgrades.

The motherboard includes four DDR3 memory slots that support dual-channel configurations with speeds up to 1333 MHz, allowing for up to 16GB of system memory. This is beneficial for multitasking and running memory-intensive applications. Connectivity options are extensive, featuring 14 USB 2.0 ports (six on the rear panel and eight via internal headers), two eSATA ports, four SATA2 ports, and support for RAID configurations (0, 1, 5, 10). These features make it easy to connect a wide range of storage devices and peripherals.

Audio capabilities are handled by the integrated 6-channel Intel High Definition Audio, providing high-quality sound without the need for an additional sound card. The motherboard also includes a Gigabit Ethernet controller for fast internet connectivity.

Security is a key focus of the DQ57TM, featuring a Trusted Platform Module (TPM) for hardware-based security and ESET Smart Security software for protection against viruses and other online threats. Additionally, it supports Intel Active Management Technology (AMT) and Intel Remote PC Assist Technology for remote system management and support.

The DQ57TM is designed with energy efficiency in mind, meeting ENERGY STAR and EuP specifications. It comes with a three-year limited warranty, ensuring reliability and support for users.
