2.1.2 Optional Components
The following onboard components are optional at the time of purchase:
• Smart Audio! Software Audio and Hardware AC’97 V2.1 Codec compliant,
Analog Device’s 3D sound circuitry, sample rate conversion from 7kHz to 48kHz.
• PCI Audio! Provides Yamaha YMF744B PCI audio chipset with 3D surrond
and positional capability. Includes complete online help to guide you through

ages by eliminating digital-to-analog and analog-to-digital conversions, which
can accumulate noise and degrade image quality.
• No Messy Wires! Integrated Consumer IR and Standard IR supports an op-
tional remote control package for wireless interfacing with external peripherals,
personal gadgets, or an optional remote controller.
