DDR memory support
Employing the Double Data Rate (DDR) memory technology, the P4PE-X/TE
motherboard supports up to 2GB of system memory using unbuffered non-ECC
PC3200*/2700/2100/1600 DDR DIMMs. Memory support depends on the CPU
FSB and DDR type. See page 1-12 for the CPU and DIMM requirements.
*Overclocking mode
Onboard LAN solution
The motherboard has the Realtek
®
RTL8100C chipset onboard to support
10BASE-T/100BASE-TX networking protocol. See pages 1-4
USB 2.0 technology
The motherboard implements the new Universal Serial Bus (USB) 2.0
specification, extending the connection speed from 12 Mbps on USB 1.1 to a fast
480 Mbps on USB 2.0. See page 1-16.
6-channel digital audio
The ADI AD1888 AC ‘97 audio CODEC is onboard to provide 6-channel audio
playback capability. A digital audio connector is present to accommodate the Sony/
Philips Digital Interface (S/PDIF) Out module. See page 1-18.
Extreme Overclocking
The P4PE-X/TE offers robust overclocking options to maximize your system
performance. Overclocking features include: a flexible CPU core voltage
adjustment in 0.025V increments over defaults, the SFS (Stepless Frequency
Selection) feature, an adjustable FSB/DDR ratio with a fixed AGP/PCI frequency
and the ASUS C.P.R. (CPU Parameter Recall).
ASUS EZ Flash BIOS
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 2.2.
C.P.R. (CPU Parameter Recall)
When the system hangs due to overclocking failure, there is no need to open the
case to clear the CMOS data. Simply restart the system and the BIOS will
automatically restore the CPU default setting for each parameter. See page 1-15.
CrashFree BIOS
This feature allows you to restore the original BIOS data from a floppy disk in
cases when the BIOS codes and data are corrupted. This protection eliminates the
need to buy a replacement ROM chip. See page 2-7.
