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
specications.
64-bit CPU support
The motherboard supports 64-bit processors that provides high-performance
computing and faster memory access required for memory and data intensive
applications.
Serial ATA technology
The motherboard supports the Serial ATA technology through the Serial ATA
interfaces and the Intel
®
ICH7 DH chipset. The SATA specication allows for
thinner, more exible cables with lower pin count, reduced voltage requirement,
and up to 300 MB/s data transfer rate.
8-channel high denition audio
The onboard Realtek
®
ALC888 8-channel high-denition audio CODEC provides
192 KHz/ 24-bit audio output, jack-sensing and restasking functions. With the
8
-channel audio ports and S/PDIF interfaces, you can connect your computer to
home theater decoders to produce crystal-clear digital audio.
S/PDIF digital sound ready
The motherboard supports the S/PDIF Out function through the S/PDIF interfaces at
midboard. The S/PDIF technology turns your computer into a high-end entertainment
system with digital connectivity to powerful audio and speaker systems.
Temperature, fan, and voltage monitoring
The CPU temperature is monitored by the ASIC (integrated in the Winbond Super
I/O) to prevent overheating and damage. The system fan rotations per minute (RPM)
is monitored for timely failure detection. The ASIC monitors the voltage levels to
ensure stable supply of current for critical components.
