This provides great graphics performance. Intel® s��e�c�o�n�d��g�e�n��e�ra��ti�o�n��C�o�r�e i�7�/��C�o�r�e i5��/�C��o�r�e i3�� processors are among the most powerful and energy efficient CPUs in the world. Intel® Z68 Express Chipset The Intel® Z68 Express Chipset is the latest single-chipset design to support the new 1155 socket Intel® Core™ i7 / Core™ i5 / Core™ i3 second generation processors. It uses serial point-to-point links, which allows increased bandwidth and stability, and provides an improved performance. It also provides two SATA 6.0 Gb/s and four SATA 3.0 Gb/s ports for faster data retrieval at double the bandwidth of current bus systems. Moreover, Intel® Z68 Express Chipset also supports iGPU function, letting users enjoy the latest Intel integrated graphic performance. Intel® Smart Response Technology Intel® Smart Response Technology boosts overall system performance. It uses an installed fast SSD (min 18.6GB available capacity required) as a cache for frequently accessed data. Key benefits include reduced load and wait times, and lower power consumption through the elimination of unnecessary hard drive spin. This technology combines SSD performance with hard drive capacity, operating up to 4X faster than a hard drive-only system, and an important part of Green ASUS eco-friendly computing. Quad-GPU SLI™ and Quad-GPU CrossFireX™ Support The motherboard's powerful Intel® Z68 platform optimizes PCIe allocation in multiple-GPU configurations of either SLI™ or CrossFireX™. This allows you to enjoy a never beforeexperienced brand new gaming style.

C.) / 2133(O.C.) / 1866(O.C.) / 1600 / 1333 / 1066 MHz to meet the higher bandwidth requirements of the latest 3D graphics, multimedia, and Internet applications. The dualchannel DDR3 architecture enlarges the bandwidth of your system memory to boost system performance. * Due to CPU behavior, DDR3 2200/2000/1800 MHz memory module will run at DDR3 2133/1866/1600 MHz frequency as default. Complete USB 3.0 Integration ASUS facilitates strategic USB 3.0 accessibility for both the front and rear panel - 4 USB 3.0 ports in total. Experience the latest plug & play connectivity at speeds up to 10 times faster than USB 2.0.
