Extreme Graphics
The motherboard comes with the revolutionary graphics core that delivers intense,
realistic 3D graphics with sharp images, fast rendering, smooth motion, and
incredible detail. This unique architecture enables balanced memory usage
between graphics and the system for optimal performance.
Dual-channel DDR400 memory support
The motherboard supports up to 4GB of system memory using PC3200/2700/2100
non-ECC DDR DIMMs to deliver up to 6.4GB/s data transfer rate for the latest 3D
graphics, multimedia, and Internet applications. See page 1-13.
Serial ATA technology
The motherboard bundles the new Serial ATA technology through the SATA
interfaces onboard. The SATA specification allows for thinner, more flexible cables
with lower pin count, reduced voltage requirement, up to 150 MB/s data transfer
rate, and software compatibility with the legacy Parallel ATA. See page 1-22.
CrashFree BIOS 2
This feature allows you to restore the original BIOS data from the support CD, or
from a bootable floppy disk, when the BIOS codes and data are corrupted. This
protection eliminates the need to buy a replacement ROM chip. See page 2-5.
ASUS MyLogo™
This new feature present in the motherboard allows you to personalize and add
style to your system with customizable boot logos. The ASUS MyLogo™ is
automatically installed when you install the ASUS Update utility from Utilities menu
in the support CD.
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 2-4.
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 1-27.
