However, these are not true x16 slots, as when in multi-GPU mode, these slots will automatically drop down to PCI Express 2.0 x8 speeds. The P45 supports two PCI Express 2.0 x16 slots and can support AMD/ATI Radeon cards in a CrossFire configuration. New with the P45 is support for PCI Express 2.0, a feature which was only available on the X38/X48 chipsets on the Intel side until now. We’re expecting most major motherboard companies to release multiple products on the P45 to support both standards, as DDR2 still commands significant demand due to its excellent price/performance ratio.

The P45 supports both dual-channel DDR2 (800 MHz - up to 16 GB capacity) and dual-channel DDR3 (1066 MHz - up to 8 GB capacity), and it will be up to motherboard manufacturers to decide which standard to support. However, considering even older generation P35 boards could easily hit 1800 MHz FSB speeds with little work, there is no doubt in our mind that P45 Express boards will easily hit 1900-2000 MHz+ FSB speeds given the proper BIOS controls. Currently, Intel only recommends the X48 chipset for front side bus speeds over 1333 MHz. Just make sure you get the right download for your system (32bit or 64bit) and that you confirm the compatability for your chipset.The P45 Express supports Socket-775 Core 2 Duo/Quad processors at up to 1333 MHz, which means “official” 1600 MHz FSB support is still out of the mix. This modified driver increases your VRAM from 64mb to 128mb, as well as optimizes other settings for improved overall gameplay performace. The best one I've found is called Royal BNA Driver. The workaround is to install a modified VGA driver. Unfortunately, most Laptop's do not allow you to do this. If you are on a desktop, you can access your BIOS and directly inrease the dedicated video memory allocation. The problem might be in the amount of Dedicated Video Memory(VRAM). (from 2009), which does actually support OpenGL 2.1. Updating the VGA driver didn't help one iota, my OEM wouldn't provide support for any build past 8. I am using an Acer Aspire 5734z with the Intel Mobile 4 Series Express Chipset with GMA 4500M.

So I thought I might pitch how I made it work on my system. Hello, I'm brand new on StarMade and I noticed that it does not have a whole lot of support for older Integrated Intel Graphics Cards.
