2. FEATURES Optional Components 2. FEATURES • SMBus: Features the System Management Bus interface, which is used to physically transport commands and information between SMBus devices. • PC Health Monitoring: Provides an easy way to examine and manage system status information, such as CPU and systerm voltages, temperatures, and fan status through the onboard hardware ASUS ASIC 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) Multi-I/O: Provides two high-speed UART compatible 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: 4Mbit firmware gives a new easy-to-use interface which provides more control and protection over the motherboard. Provides 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 busses to the memory and processor. • Onboard LED: The onboard LED will light up when there is standby power to the motherboard. This acts as a reminder to the user to turn OFF the power before plugging and unplugging devices so as not to damage the motherboard, peripherals, and/or components. • Integrated LAN Capability (optional): Features the Intel ICH2 integrated LAN controller, which supports Wired for Management, remote wake-up, and OnNow initiative to reduce Total Cost of Ownership (TCO).
