Chapter 1: Product introduction
1.3.2 Innovative ASUS features
Fanless Design
The ASUS fanless design allows multi‑directional heat flow from major
thermal sources in the motherboard to lower overall system temperature,
resulting in quieter operation and longer system life.
Precision Tweaker
This feature allows you to fine‑tune the CPU/memory voltage and gradually
increase the Front Side Bus (FSB) and PCI Express frequency to achieve
maximum system performance. See pages 4-20 to 4-22 for details.
CrashFree BIOS
This feature allows you to restore the original BIOS data from the support CD
in case the BIOS codes and data are corrupted. This protection eliminates the
need to buy a replacement ROM chip. See page 4-5 for details.
ASUS Q-Fan technology
The ASUS Q-Fan technology smartly adjusts the fan speeds according to
the system loading to ensure quiet, cool, and efficient operation.
See pages 4-33 for details.
ASUS MyLogo™
This new feature present in the motherboard allows you to personalize and
add style to your system with customizable boot logos. See page 5-8 for
details.
Gigabit LAN solution
The motherboard comes with a PCI Express Gigabit LAN controller to
provide a total solution for your networking needs. The Gigabit LAN
controller uses the PCI Express segment to provide faster data bandwidth.
