•

Before connecting or removing signal cables from the motherboard,

ensure that all power cables are unplugged.

•

Seek professional assistance before using an adapter or extension cord.

These devices could interrupt the grounding circuit.

•

Make sure that your power supply is set to the correct voltage in your

area. If you are not sure about the voltage of the electrical outlet you

are using, contact your local power company.

•

If the power supply is broken, do not try to fix it by yourself. Contact a

qualified service technician or your retailer.

ATI CrossFire™ Xpress 3200

The motherboard features ATI CrossFire™ Xpress 3200 support, delivering

improved overclocking and optimal PCI Express device performance. The

combined multi-GPU power boosts image quality and rendering speed for

the highest quality images. With its optimized peer-to-peer and general link

performance GPU sharing, you are a step ahead in graphics and gaming

effects. The chipset allows higher antialiasing, anisotropic filtering, sharing,

and texture settings. The ATI CrossFire™ Xpress 3200 also comes with the

ATI Catalyst™ Control Center that allows you to get real-time 3D-rendered

previews of adjustments to your display configurations and advanced 3D

settings.

PCI Express™ interfacePCI Express™ interface

PCI Express™ interface

The motherboard fully supports PCI Express, the latest I/O interconnect

technology that speeds up the PCI bus. PCI Express features point-to-point

serial interconnections between devices and allows higher clockspeeds by

carrying data in packets. This high speed interface is software compatible

with existing PCI specifications. See page 2-18 for details.

Serial ATA 3.0 Gb/s technology and SATA-On-The-Go

The motherboard fully supports the Serial ATA II 3.0 Gb/s technology

through the Serial ATA interfaces and the ATI

SB 600 chipset. The Serial

ATA 3.0 Gb/s specification provides twice the bandwidth of the current

Serial ATA products with a host of new features, including Power

Management (PM) Implementation Algorithm. Serial ATA allows for thinner,

more flexible cables with lower pin count and reduced voltage required.

Leveraging these Serial ATA 3.0 Gb/s features is the SATA-On-The-Go.

Supported by the JMicron

Serial ATA controller, the Serial ATA 3.0 Gb/s

connector (on the rear panel) provides smart setup and hot-plug function.

IEEE 1394a support

The IEEE 1394a interface provides high-speed and flexible PC connectivity

to a wide range of peripherals and devices compliant to IEEE 1394a

standards. The IEEE 1394a interface allows up to 400 Mbps transfer rates

through simple, low-cost, high-bandwidth asynchronous (real-time) data

interfacing between computers, peripherals, and consumer electronic

devices such as camcorders, VCRs, printers,TVs, and digital cameras. See

page 2-30 for details.

ASUS Stack Cool 2

ASUS Stack Cool 2 is a fan-less and zero-noise cooling solution that lowers

the temperature of critical heat generating components. The motherboard

uses a special design on the printed circuit board (PCB) to dissipate heat

that critical components generate.

AI NET2AI NET2

AI NET2

The AI NET2 is a BIOS-based diagnostic tool that detects and reports

Ethernet cable faults and shorts. With this utility, you can easily monitor

the condition of the Ethernet cable(s) connected to the LAN (RJ-45)

port(s). During the bootup process, AI NET2 immediately diagnoses the

LAN cable(s) and reports shorts and faults up to 100 meters at 1 meter

accuracy.

C.P.R. (CPU Parameter Recall)

The C.P.R. feature of the motherboard BIOS allows automatic re-setting to

the BIOS default settings in case the system hangs due to overclocking.

When the system hangs due to overclocking, C.P.R. eliminates the need to

open the system chassis and clear the RTC data. Simply shut down and

reboot the system, and the BIOS automatically restores the CPU default

setting for each parameter.
