2. FEATURES Specifications 2. FEATURES 2.1 The ASUS P3W Motherboard The P3W 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 P3W motherboard? 2.1.1 Specifications • Latest Intel Processor Support! Supports Intel Pentium® III (450MHz and faster), Pentium® II (233MHz to 450MHz), and Celeron™ (266MHz and faster) processors. • Latest Intel 810 Chipset! Features 100/66MHz FSB Intel 810 chipset with the Accelerated Hub Architecture, which provides direct connections between the 810 chipset and subsystems such as IDE controllers, USB controllers, and PCI add-in cards. • Multi-Cache! Supports processors with 512, 256, 128, or 0KB Pipelined Burst Level 2 Cache. • 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. • 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 incase you want to manually adjust the processor's external frequency. • Smart Slots! Six 32-bit PCI (rev 2.2) slots and one 16-bit ISA expansion slot for greater expansion flexibility. 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 P3W User's Manual
