2. FEATURES Specifications 2. FEATURES • USB: Supports up to six USB ports, two on the back panel and four midboard, for more peripheral connectivity options. • One Touch Management: Supports an optional ASUS iPanel, an easy to access box with system information LED display, front I/O ports, and space reserved for a hard disk drive. With an ASUS iPanel, you can monitor your computer system's vital components. • PC Health Monitoring: Provides an easy way to examine and manage system status information, such as CPU and systerm voltages, temperatures, and fan status through the onboard hardware ASUS ASIC and the bundled ASUS PC Probe. • SMBus: Features the System Management Bus interface, which is used to physically transport commands and information between SMBus devices. • PCI/AMR Expansion Slots: Provides five 32-bit PCI (Rev. 2.2) expansion slots, which can support Bus Master PCI cards, such as SCSI or LAN cards (PCI supports up to 133MB/s maximum throughput), and one Audio Modem Riser (AMR) slot (shared), which supports a very affordable audio and/or modem riser card. • Super Multi-I/O: Provides two high-speed UART compatible serial ports and one parallel port with EPP and ECP capabilities. • Enhanced ACPI & Anti-Boot Virus Protection: Programmable BIOS (Flash EEPROM), offering enhanced ACPI for Windows 982000/Millenium compatibility, built-in firmware-based virus protection, and autodetection of most devices for virtually automatic setup. • Concurrent PCI: Concurrent PCI allows multiple PCI transfers from PCI master busses to the memory and processor. • Smart BIOS: 2Mb firmware provides Vcore and CPU/SDRAM frequency adjustments, boot block write protection, and HD/SCSI/MO/ZIP/CD/Floppy boot selection. • Integrated Infrared (IrDA) Support: Integrated IR supports an optional remote control package for wireless interfacing with external peripherals, personal gadgets, or an optional remote controller. • Desktop Management Interface (DMI): Supports DMI through BIOS, which allows hardware to communicate within a standard protocol creating a higher level of compatibility. (Requires DMI-enabled components.) • Color-coded Connectors: To enhance user accessibility to system components and to meet PC 99 compliancy, major connectors in this motherboard are colorcoded. 2.1.2 Optional Components • Onboard Audio: C-Media Audio Chip CMI8738 supporting the latest PCI 6 channel and HRTF 3D Audio sound circuitry.
