FEATURES 2.1 The ASUS P3C-E The ASUS P3C-E motherboard is carefully designed for the demanding PC user who wants advanced features processed by the fastest processors. 2.1.1 Specifications • Latest Intel Processor Support Intel Pentium® III 100MHz FSB, Katmai core SECC2 Intel Pentium® III B 133MHz FSB, Katmai core SECC2 Intel Pentium® III E 100MHz FSB, Coppermine core SECC2 Intel Pentium® III EB 133MHz FSB, Coppermine core SECC2 Intel Pentium® II 100MHzMHz FSB SECC Intel Celeron™ 100MHz FSB SEPP • Intel 820 Chipset: Features the Intel® 820 chipset (Memory Controller Hub and I/O Controller Hub) with support for AGP 4X mode, which can transport twice the amount of data to the current AGP standard; 100/133MHz Front Side Bus (FSB); UltraDMA/66, which allows burst mode data transfer rates of up to 66.6MBps; and Intel Random Number Generator, which will improve cryptography, digital signing, and other security protocols. • PC800 Memory Support: Equipped with two Rambus Inline Memory Module (RIMM) sockets to support Intel PC800/PC700/PC600-compliant Rambus DRAMs (RDRAMs) (available in 64, 96, 128, 192, 256, 512MB densities) up to 1GB. These RDRAMs are necessary to meet the increase in processor performance and multimedia and 3D functions, especially where high bandwidth is required. These sockets also accept Intel PC100-compliant SDRAMs (16, 32, 64, 128, 256, or 512MB) up to 1GB by using an ASUS DR2 DIMM Riser (available separately as an option). • AGP Pro Slot: Supports the new Accelerated Graphics Port Pro card for high performance, component level interconnect targeted at 3D graphical applications using a 1X, 2X, or 4X mode bus. • UltraDMA/66 Support: Comes with an onboard PCI Bus Master IDE controller with two connectors that support four IDE devices on two channels. Supports UltraDMA/66, UltraDMA/33, PIO Modes 3 & 4 and Bus Master IDE DMA Mode 2, and Enhanced IDE devices, such as DVD-ROM, CD-ROM, CD-R/RW, LS-120, and Tape Backup drives. • Wake-Up Support: Supports Wake-On-LAN and Wake-On-Ring activity. • JumperFree™ Mode: Allows processor settings and easy overclocking of fre- quency and Vcore voltage all through BIOS setup when JumperFree™ mode is enabled. Easy-to-use DIP switches instead of jumpers are included to allow manual adjustment of the processor's external frequency. 8 ASUS P3C-E User's Manual
