1.3.2 Value-added solutions
Overclocking
• adjustable CPU frequency multiple in BIOS using the ASUS
JumperFree™ solution
• C.P.R. (CPU Parameter Recall)
• adjustable FSB/DDR ratios
• adjustable CPU V
CORE
, and DDR memory and AGP voltages
• Stepless Frequency Selection (SFS) for fine-tuning system bus
frequency from 100MHz up to 200MHz at 1MHz increments
Concurrent PCI
This feature allows multiple PCI transfers from PCI master buses to the
memory and processor.
Temperature, fan, and voltage monitoring
The CPU temperature is monitored by the ASUS ASIC to prevent
overheating and damage. The system fan rotations per minute (RPM) is
monitored for timely failure detection. The system voltage levels are
monitored to ensure stable supply of current for critical components.
Dual function power switch
While the system is ON, pressing the power switch for less than 4 seconds
puts the system to sleep mode or to soft-off mode, depending on the BIOS
setting. Pressing the power switch for more than 4 seconds lets the
system enter the soft-off mode regardless of the BIOS setting.
ACPI ready
The Advanced Configuration power Interface (ACPI) provides more energy
saving features for operating systems that support OS Direct Power
Management (OSPM).
Auto fan off
The system fans power off automatically when the system is in sleep
mode. This feature reduces both power consumption and system noise.
Chassis intrusion detection
The motherboard supports chassis intrusion monitoring through the ASUS
ASIC. A chassis intrusion event is retained in CMOS for more protection.
