2. FEATURES Specifications 2. FEATURES 2.1 The ASUS MEW-RM Motherboard The MEW-RM motherboard from ASUS is carefully designed for the demanding PC user who wants many smart features in a small package. So what's so smart about the ASUS MEW-RM motherboard? 2.1.1 Specifications • Latest Intel Socket 370 Processor Support! Supports Intel's Celeron processor designed for Socket 370 and packaged in Plastic Pin Grid Array (PPGA). • Latest Intel 810 Chipset! Features 100MHz FSB Intel 810 chipset (GMCH0 & ICH) and a 24-bit 230MHz RAMDAC graphics controller. • Integrated Graphics! Controller supports 3D hyper pipelined architecture, parallel data processing and compression, precise pixel interpolation, full 2D hardware acceleration, and motion video acceleration. • ASUS Graphics Driver! You can gain about 12% performance over that of the standard graphics driver (2D high-end graphics WinMark) using ASUS' custom graphics driver. ASUS custom graphics driver also provides more features and provides selection of higher refresh rates and resolutions. • Smart Audio! Software Audio and Hardware AC'97 V2.1 Codec compliant, Analog Device's 3D sound circuitry, sample rate conversion from 7kHz to 48kHz. • 3D Positional Audio! Brings new levels of realism to games with sounds being positioned interactively around the user, making them truly part of the 3D virtual experience. Better music reproduction is possible with MIDI utilizing Wavetable synthesis. • Versatile Memory Support! DRAM controller supports asymmetrical addressing and three DIMM sockets support Intel PC100-compliant SDRAMs (16, 32, 64, 128, or 256MB) up to 512MB. (supports a maximum of 4 sides) • JumperFree™ Mode! Allows processor settings and easy overclocking of frequency and Vcore voltage all through BIOS setup when JumperFree™ mode is enabled. Easy-to-use DIP switches instead of jumpers are included in case you want to manually adjust the processor's external frequency. • Smart Slots! Provides three 32-bit PCI (rev 2.2) expansion slots. PCI supports up to 133MB/s maximum throughput. Each PCI slot can support a Bus Master PCI card (such as SCSI or LAN cards). • Latest Low Pin Count Multi-I/O: Provides two high-speed UART compatible serial ports and one parallel port with EPP and ECP capabilities. • Integrated IDE! Controller supports UltraDMA/66 up to 66MB/s, UltraDMA/ 33 up to 33MB/s, and PIO Mode 4 up to 17MB/s. • Peripheral Wake-Up! Supports Wake-On-LAN, Wake-On-Ring, Keyboard Wake-Up, and BIOS Wake-Up. 8 ASUS MEW-RM User's Manual
