AGP 8X support
The motherboard supports the latest graphic architecture, the AGP Pro/8X
interface (a.k.a. AGP 3.0), offering 2.1GB/s bandwidth which is twice that
of its predecessor AGP 4X. See page 2-16.
ASUS Wi-Fi slot
The ASUS proprietary Wi-Fi slot conforms to the IEEE 802.11b standard
for wireless LAN and is specifically designed for the ASUS WiFi-b™ add-
on card. The ASUS WiFi-b™ add-on card comes with a bundled Software
AP (Access Point) application to save stand-alone AP ownership costs.
The card also comes with user-friendly utilities and applications that allow
quick wireless connections to notebooks, PDAs and other wireless LAN
devices. This proprietary slot will support the IEEE 802.11g WiFi-b™ card
when available. See page 2-17.
Serial ATA technology
The motherboard supports the new Serial ATA technology through the
SATA interfaces and the Intel ICH5R onboard, and allows RAID 0 and
RAID 1 configuration. The SATA specification allows for thinner, more
flexible cables with lower pin count, reduced voltage requirement, and up
to 150MB/s data transfer rate. See page 2-22.
8 USB ports
The motherboard implements the new Universal Serial Bus (USB) 2.0
specification, extending the connection speed from 12 Mbps on USB 1.1
to a fast 480 Mbps on USB 2.0. See page 2-26.
IEEE 1394 support
The IEEE 1394 interfaces and the VIA 6307 controller onboard provide
high-speed and flexible PC connectivity to a wide range of peripherals and
devices compliant to IEEE 1394a standards. The IEEE 1394 allows up to
400Mbps transfer rates through simple, low-cost, high-bandwidth
asynchronous (real-time) data interfacing between computers, peripherals,
and consumer electronic devices such as camcorders, VCRs,
printers,TVs, and digital cameras. See page 2-21.
