Serial ATA 3Gb/s technology The motherboard supports the next-generation Serial ATA 3Gb/s technology through the Serial ATA interfaces and the NVIDIA® nForce4® PRO chipset. The SATA 3Gb/s specification provides twice the bandwidth of the current Serial ATA products. Additionally, Serial ATA allows thinner, more flexible cables with lower pin count, and reduced voltage requirement. Dual Gigabit LAN solution The motherboard comes with dual Gigabit LAN controllers to provide comprehensive solution for your networking operation. The integrated network controllers use the PCI Express segment to provide higher data bandwidth for your wired or wireless Internet, LAN, and file sharing requirements. USB 2.0 technology The motherboard implements the Universal Serial Bus (USB) 2.0 specification, dramatically increasing the connection speed from the 12 Mbps bandwidth on USB 1.1 to a fast 480 Mbps on USB 2.0. USB 2.0 is backward compatible with USB 1.1. Temperature, fan, and voltage monitoring The CPU temperature is monitored by the ASIC (Winbond W83793G) 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. 1.4.2 Innovative ASUS features CrashFree BIOS 2 This feature allows you to restore the original BIOS data from the support CD in case when the BIOS codes and data are corrupted. This protection eliminates the need to buy a replacement ROM chip. ASUS Smart Fan technology The ASUS Smart Fan technology smartly adjusts the fan speeds according to the system loading to ensure quiet, cool, and efficient operation. ASUS KFSN4-DRE Series 1-3
