Features
LGA775 Intel® Quad-core Processor Ready
This motherboard supports the latest Intel®
Quad-core processors in LGA775 package.
It's excellent for multi-tasking, multi-media and
enthusiastic gamers with 1066/800 MHz FSB.
Intel® Quad-core is one of the most powerful
CPU in the world.
NVIDIA
SLI Technology
NVIDIA SLI (Scalable Link Interface) takes
advantage of the increased bandwidth of the PCI
Express bus architecture and features intelligent
hardware and software that allows two GPUs to efficiently
work together to deliver earth-shattering, scalable
performance. For some applications nearly 2X performance!
(From www.NVIDIA.com)
NVIDIA® nForce® 650i SLI
The NVIDIA® nForce® 650i SLI chipset
supports the NVIDIA® Scalable Link Interface
(SLI) technology that allows two graphics
processing units (GPUs) in a single system. It is
a highly integrated, high-performance, cost-effective
processor.
Dual-Channel
DDR2 800
DDR2 is the next generation memory technology to
replace the current DDR. With the highest speed
up to 800MHz, DDR2 memory provides great performance
for 3D graphics and other memory demanding applications.
Gigabit LAN
The integrated dual Gigabit LAN design allows a
PC to serve as a network gateway for managing.
IEEE
1394a interface
IEEE 1394a interface provides high speed digital
interface for audio/video appliances such as digital
television, digital video camcorders, storage peripherals
& other PC portable devices.
SATA
on the Go
The motherboard supports the next-generation hard
drives based on the Serial ATA (SATA) 3Gb/s storage
specification, delivering enhanced scalability and
doubling the bus bandwidth for high-speed data retrieval
and saves. The external SATA port located at the
back I/O provides smart setup and hot-plug functions.
Easily backup photos, videos and other entertainment
contents on external devices.
Q-Connector
* Make connection quick and accurate!
The ASUS Q-Connector allows you to connect or disconnect
chassis front panel cables in one easy step with
one complete module. This unique adapter eliminates
the trouble of plugging in one cable at a time,
making connection quick and accurate.
Fanless
Design
Provide a cool environment without all the baggage
Cooling fans, though a popular thermal solution,
also come with noise and malfunction likelyhood.
ASUS Motherboard's fansless concept is specifically
created to provide a cool environment without all
the baggage. ASUS has devoted special efforts to
address the thermal issues across the motherboard,
and most notably the areas that reside the CPU,
power, VGA, Northbridge and Southbridge. The heat
sinks and strategic board layout were tailor made
to dissipate heat in the most efficient manner.
ASUS
O.C. Profile
The motherboard features the ASUS O.C. Profile that
allows users to conveniently store or load multiple
BIOS settings. The BIOS settings can be stored in
the CMOS or a separate file, giving users freedom
to share and distribute their favorite overclocking
settings
ASUS
AI NET2
ASUS AI NET2 remotely detects cable connection the
second you turn on the system, and any faulty connections
are reported back up to 100 meters at 1 meter accuracy.
CrashFree
BIOS 2
* Simple BIOS auto-recovery process
The CrashFree BIOS 2 feature now includes the BIOS
auto-recovery function in a support CD. Users can
reboot their system through the support CD when
a bootable disk is not available and go through
the simple BIOS auto-recovery process. ASUS motherboards
now enable users to enjoy this protection feature
without the need to pay for an optional ROM.
EZ
Flash 2
* Simply update BIOS from a USB flash disk before
entering the OS
EZ Flash 2 is a user-friendly BIOS update utility.
Simply launch this tool and update BIOS from a USB
flash disk before entering the OS. You can update
your BIOS only in a few clicks without preparing
an additional floppy diskette or using an OS-based
flash utility.
C.P.R.
(CPU Parameter Recall)
* Protect your BIOS data when overclocking.
When the system hangs due to overclocking failure,
there is no need to open the case to clear CMOS
data. Just simply restart the system, the BIOS would
show the previous setting and then users can amend
the CPU setting again.
GreenASUS
The motherboard and its packaging comply with the
European Union's Restriction on the use of Hazardous
Substances (RoHS). This is in line with the ASUS
vision of creating environment-friendly and recyclable
products and packaging to safeguard consumers' health
while minimizing the impact on the environment.
