This feature allows you to restore the original BIOS data from the support CD in

case when the BIOS codes and data are corrupted. This protection eliminates the

need to buy a replacement ROM chip. See page 2-6 for details.

With the ASUS EZ Flash, you can easily update the system BIOS even before

loading the operating system. No need to use a DOS-based utility or boot from a

floppy disk. See page 2-3 for details.

The ASUS Q-Fan technology smartly adjusts the fan speeds according to the

system loading to ensure quiet, cool, and efficient operation.

your system with customizable boot logos. See details on page 2-29.

Serial ATA 3.0 Gb/s technology

The motherboard supports the Serial ATA technology through the Serial ATA

interfaces and the Intel

®

ICH7 chipset. The SATA specification allows for thinner,

more flexible cables with lower pin count, reduced voltage requirement, and up to

300 MB/s data transfer rate.

High Definition Audio

Enjoy high-end sound quality on your PC! The onboard HD audio (High Definition

Audio, previously codenamed Azalia) CODEC enables high-quality 192KHz/24-bit

audio output, and multi-streaming technology that simultaneously sends different

audio streams to different destinations. You can now talk to your partners on the
