AMD® Phenom™ X4 / Phenom™ X3 / Athlon™ X2 / Athlon™ / Sempron™ processors (socket AM2+ / AM2) The motherboard supports AMD® Socket AM2+ multi-core processors. It features dual-channel DDR2 1066 memory support, data transfer rate up to 5200MT/s via HyperTransport™ 3.0 based system bus and AMD® Cool 'n' Quiet!™ Technology. AMD® 780G chipset The AMD 780G Northbridge is the latest AMD chipset designed for both HT1.0 and 5200MT/s HyperTransport™ 3.0 (HT 3.0) interface speed and external graphics in PCI Express 2.0 standard. It features the integrated ATI RV610-based graphics and fully Directx 10.0 compliant. Dual channel DDR2 1066 support This motherboard supports DDR2 1066, which provides faster data transfer rate and more bandwidth to increase memory data transfer rate and computing efficiency. This enhances system performance in 3D graphics and other memory demanding applications. Due to AM2+ CPU limitation, only one DDR2 1066 is supported per channel. When four DDR2 1066 DIMMs are installed, all DIMMs run at 800MHz frequency by default for system stability. AMD® Hybrid CrossFireX Technology Hybrid CrossFireX Technology is a unique multi-GPU technology combining the onboard GPU and the discrete graphics card together to enhance 3D graphics performance. Visit www.amd.com for the Hybrid CrossfireX selected GPUs. 1.3.2 Innovative ASUS features ASUS Power Solution ASUS 4+1 Phase Power Design To fully unleash the next-generation AM3 CPU's potential, ASUS M4A78-HTPC motherboard has adopted a brand-new 4-phase VRM power design. It delivers high power efficiency and supreme overclocking ability. Furthermore, high quality power components can effective lower system temperature to ensure longer component lifespan. ASUS M4A78-HTPC also features an extra 1-phase power for integrated memory/HT controller to provide independent power to vital components. 1-2 ASUS M4A78-HTPC
