HyperTransport™ 3.0 support

HyperTransport™ 3.0 technology provides 2.6 times more bandwidth

than HT1.0 that radically improves system efficiency for a smoother,

faster computing environment.

64-bit CPU support

64-bit computing, the next generation technology to replace the current

32-bit architecture, delivers advanced system performance, faster

memory access, and increased productivity. This motherboard provides

excellent compatibility and flexibility by supporting either 64-bit or 32-bit

architecture.

NVIDIA

®

GeForce™ 8200 Chipset

The NVIDIA

®

GeForce™ 8200 offers the latest support of Hybrid SLI

Technology, DirectX10 graphics features, HD video playback with

HDMI / DVI output. It also supports HyperTransport™ 3.0 interface,

PCI Express™ 2.0 bus architecture, Serial ATA 3Gb/s devices, and

is optimized with AMD’s latest AM2+ and multi-core CPUs to provide

excellent system performance.

Gigabit LAN solution

The onboard LAN controller is a highly integrated Gb LAN controller.

It is enhanced with an ACPI management function to provide efficient

power management for advanced operating systems.

AMD Cool ‘n’ Quiet Technology

The motherboard supports the AMD Cool ‘n’ Quiet Technology, which

monitors system operation and automatically adjusts CPU voltage and

frequency for a cool and quiet operating environment.

Dual channel DDR2 1066 support

This motherboard supports DDR2 1066, which provides faster data

transfer rate and more bandwidth to increase memory data transfer

rate and computing efficiency. This enhances system performance in

3D graphics and other memory demanding applications.

• DDR2 1066 is supported by AM2+ CPU only. Refer to the ASUS website at

www.asus.com for the supported CPU models.

• Due to AM2+ CPU limitation, only one DDR2 1066 DIMM is supported per channel.

When four DDR2 1066 DIMMs are installed, all DIMMs run at 800MHz frequency by

default for system stability.

Hybrid SLI

Hybrid SLI™ technology, based on NVIDIA’s industry-leading SLI

technology, delivers multi-GPU benefits when an NVIDIA motherboard

GPU is combined with an NVIDIA discrete GPU.

Visit the ASUS website at www.asus.com to download the latest Hybrid SLI driver.
