AI NET solution
The 3Com
®
3C940 Gigabit PCI LAN controller chipset is onboard to
provide a single-chip solution for LAN on Motherboard (LOM) applications.
The 3C940 controller integrates 32-bit 10/100/1000BASE-T Gigabit
Ethernet Media Access Control (IEEE 802.3 compliant) and Physical Layer
Transceiver solution to support high performance network applications.
The controller is equipped with the net-diagnosing utility, VCT (Virtual
Cable Tester), that intelligently diagnoses and reports cable faults from a
remote location up to 100 meters. This feature helps maintain a more
stable network connection.
AI Audio technology
The SoundMAX-class ADI AD1985 AC ‘97 audio CODEC supports
6-channel 5.1 surround sound output, stereo microphone input, variable
Sample Rate Conversion (SRC), professional quality 103-dB out put with
94-dB SNR, and analog enumeration capability. The SoundMAX 4 XL
software features the AudioESP™ (Audio Enumeration and Sensing
Process) that allows intelligent detection of the peripherals plugged into
the audio ports and identifies the incompatible devices, if any.
AI Overclocking
This feature allows convenient overclocking up to 30% (depending on the
installed CPU and DRAM) to enhance system performance while still
maintaining system stability. See section “4.4.1 JumperFree Configuration”
to set the BIOS items for overclocking.
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 4-4.
ASUS Q-Fan technology
The ASUS Q-Fan technology smartly adjusts the fan speeds according to
the system loading to ensure quiet, cool, and efficient operation.
