S/PDIF digital sound ready
The motherboard supports the S/PDIF Out technology through the coaxial S/PDIF
Out port on the rear panel. The S/PDIF technology turns your computer into a
high-end entertainment system with digital connectivity to powerful audio and
speaker systems. See page 1-29 for details.
High Definition Audio
Enjoy high-quality sound system on your PC! The onboard 6-channel HD audio
(High Definition Audio, previously codenamed Azalia) CODEC enables high-quality
192KHz/24-bit audio output, jack-sensing technology that automatically detects
and identifies what types of peripherals are plugged into the audio I/O jacks and
notifies users of inappropriate connection, meaning there will be no more confusion
of Line-in, Line-out and Mic jacks.
USB 2.0 technology
The motherboard implements the Universal Serial Bus (USB) 2.0 specification,
dramatically increasing the connection speed from the 12 Mbps bandwidth on USB
1.1 to a fast 480 Mbps on USB 2.0. USB 2.0 is backward compatible with USB 1.1.
