2. FEATURES Performance 2. FEATURES 2.1.2 Performance • Ultra Performance: Onboard Ultra160 dual channel SCSI controller with two connectors that support 30 Ultra160 SCSI devices in two channels. • CPU Speed: CPU frequency operates at 133MHz • High-Speed Data Transfer Interface: SCSI transfers using Ultra160 dualchannel SCSI controller can handle rates up to 160MB/s. Ultra160 is backward compatible with slower SCSI devices so that older SCSI devices are not wasted. (Ultra160 SCSI cables have twisted pairs compared to flat ribbon cables used in older SCSI standards.) • Advanced 64-bit PCI: Maximizes IO bandwidth for the next generation of 64-bit PCI cards, supports four full 64-bit 66/33MHz PCI busses, and two 32-bit 33MHz PCI busses. • Full Peer-to-Peer Support: Allows full peer-to-peer transactions between PCI busses and increases options for intelligent IO and Server Management cards. • SDRAM Optimized Performance: This motherboard supports interleaved PC133 "registered" Synchronous Dynamic RandomAccess Memory (SDRAM) that supports a data transfer rate of up to 2128MB/s. • ACPI Ready: Advanced Configuration and Power Interface (ACPI) is also implemented on all ASUS smart series motherboards. ACPI provides more Energy Saving Features for future operating systems (OS) supporting OS Direct Power Management (OSPM) functionality. With these features implemented in the OS, PCs can be ready around the clock, yet satisfy all the energy saving standards. To fully utilize the benefits of ACPI, an ACPI-supported OS, such as Windows 2000, must be used. • New Compliancy: Both the BIOS and hardware levels of the motherboard meet the stringent requirements for SDG2.0 certification. The new SDG2.0 requirements for systems and components are based on the following high-level goals: support for Plug and Play compatibility and power management for configuring and managing all system components, and 32-bit device drivers and installation procedures for Windows NT/2000/XP.

FEATURES
2.1.2 Performance
Ultra Performance:
Onboard Ultra160 dual channel SCSI controller with two
connectors that support 30 Ultra160 SCSI devices in two channels.
CPU Speed:
CPU frequency operates at 133MHz
High-Speed Data Transfer Interface:
SCSI transfers using Ultra160 dual-
channel SCSI controller can handle rates up to 160MB/s. Ultra160 is backward
compatible with slower SCSI devices so that older SCSI devices are not wasted.
(Ultra160 SCSI cables have twisted pairs compared to flat ribbon cables used in
older SCSI standards.)
Advanced 64-bit PCI:
Maximizes IO bandwidth for the next generation of 64-bit
PCI cards, supports four full 64-bit 66/33MHz PCI busses, and two 32-bit 33MHz
PCI busses.
Full Peer-to-Peer Support:
Allows full peer-to-peer transactions between PCI
busses and increases options for intelligent IO and Server Management cards.
SDRAM Optimized Performance:
This motherboard supports interleaved
PC133 “registered” Synchronous Dynamic Random Access Memory (SDRAM) that
supports a data transfer rate of up to 2128MB/s.
ACPI Ready:
Advanced Configuration and Power Interface (ACPI) is also
implemented on all ASUS smart series motherboards. ACPI provides more Energy
Saving Features for future operating systems (OS) supporting OS Direct Power
Management (OSPM) functionality. With these features implemented in the OS,
PCs can be ready around the clock, yet satisfy all the energy saving standards.
To fully utilize the benefits of ACPI, an ACPI-supported OS, such as Windows
2000, must be used.
New Compliancy:
Both the BIOS and hardware levels of the motherboard meet
the stringent requirements for SDG2.0 certification. The new SDG2.0
requirements for systems and components are based on the following high-level
goals: support for Plug and Play compatibility and power management for
configuring and managing all system components, and 32-bit device drivers and
installation procedures for Windows NT/2000/XP. Color-coded connectors and
descriptive icons make identification easy as required by PC ‘99.
