2. FEATURES Optional Components 2. FEATURES • CNR Support: A Communication and Networking Riser (CNR) slot provides an interface to support very affordable multichannel audio, V.90 analog modem, Home PNA, 10/100 Ethernet networking, and a USB hub. • PC Health Monitoring: An easy way to examine and manage system status information, such as CPU and systerm voltages, temperatures, and fan status through the onboard hardware and the bundled ASUS PC Probe or Intel LDCM software. • Legacy Free: Provides five 32-bit PCI (PCI 2.2 compliant) with no ISA, eliminating bottlenecks and system memory management issues. All PCI slots can support Bus Master PCI cards, such as SCSI or LAN cards. (PCI supports up to 133MB/s maximum throughput.) • Low Pin Count (LPC) Super Multi-I/O: Provides two high-speed UART ompatible serial ports and one parallel port with EPP and ECP capabilities. UART2 can also be directed from COM2 to the Infrared Module for wireless connections. • Enhanced ACPI & Anti-Boot Virus Protection: Programmable BIOS (Flash EEPROM), offering enhanced ACPI for Windows 98/2000/Millenium compatibility, built-in firmware-based virus protection, and autodetection of most devices for virtually automatic setup. • Smart BIOS: 2Mbit firmware gives a new easy-to-use interface for more control and protection for the motherboard. Supports Vcore and CPU/RDRAM frequency adjustments, boot block write protection, and HD/SCSI/MO/ZIP/CD/ Floppy boot selection. • IrDA: Supports an optional infrared port module for a wireless interface. • Concurrent PCI: Concurrent PCI allows multiple PCI transfers from PCI master bus to the memory and processor. • Onboard LED: Signals AC power is okay. • 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.) 2.1.2 Optional Components • AC'97 Codec: The latest high-performance mini-chipset supports hi-fidelity 18-bit stereo, full duplex audio performance. The chipset supporst up to four analog line inputs, two stereo outputs, and one mono output channel. Added featuers include 3D stereo enhancement, and extra true line-level out for headphones and speaker amplifiers. • Auxillary Power Connector: Extra power back-up available with this 6 tooth connector.
