1-2 Mainboard Features
Brief Introduction
Intel®Pentium®4 processors
The Pentium 4 processor is designed to deliver performance across applications
and usages where end-users can truly appreciate and experience the
performance. The Pentium 4 processor delivers this world-class performance for
consumer enthusiasts and business professional desktop PC users as well as for
entry-level workstation users.
Intel adds support for Hyper-Threading Technology to the Pentium 4 processor
family. HT Technology allows a single, physical Pentium 4 processor to function
as two logical processor for next generation multi threaded application.
For more information about all the new features the Pentium 4 delivers, check out the
Intel website at http://www.intel.com
Chipset
This board is designed with Intel®915GL/915GV chipset. The Intel®915G series
chipset consists of the Graphics Memory Controller Hub (GMCH) and the I/O
Controller Hub (ICH6).
DDR400
Supports dual channel of DDR400 memory to give you twice the memory
bandwidth for greater system performance.
PCI-Express (PCI-E)
Next generation peripheral interface to succeed to current PCI bus for the next
decade. With smaller slot size and 250MB/sec(PCI-E*1) or 4GB/sec(PCI-E*16)
maximum transfer, PCI-Express overcomes PCI bus bottleneck.
Ultra ATA100
The mainboard provides an Ultra ATA100 Bus Master IDE controller. This
controller supports Ultra ATA100 protocols which are ideal to support demanding
applications such as real-time video, multimedia, and a high performance operating
system. A new IDE cable is required for Ultra ATA100.
Introduction
Page 1-3
Hardware Monitoring
Hardware monitoring enables you to monitor various aspects of the system opera-
tion and status. This includes CPU temperature, voltage and fan speed in RPMs.
10/100 LAN (Optional)
This mainboard is mounted with a ethernet LAN chipset. It allows the mainboard to
connect to a local area network by means of a network hub.
GbE LAN (Optional)
The new Gigabit Ethernet LAN allows data transmission at 1,000 megabits per
second (Mbps), which runs 10 times faster than conventional 10/100BASE-T
Ethernet LANs.
Serial ATA (S-ATA)
Support Serial ATA, an evolutionary replacement for Parallel ATA IDE storage
interface. Increases the peak data transfer speed up to 150MB/sec and allows
future enhancements to the computing platform.
IEEE 1394 (Optional)
IEEE 1394a provides enhanced PC connectivity for consumer electronics audio/
video appliances, storage peripherals, portable devices such as digital cameras, and
inter-PC communications. IEEE 1394a provides transfer rates up to 400Mbits/sec.
USB2.0
A popular USB standard for plugging in peripherals with up to 480Mbps transfer
speed while maintaining backward compatibility with older USB1.1 device.
8ch
Delivers 8 channel audio to bring you the latest in audio realism from DVD
movies and games. Perfect for your home theatre system.

Special Features
&Magic Health
Reports your system hardware status for every boot-up to help detect faults
early. Monitor hardware status including CPU temperature, CPU/Memory/
Chipset voltage, fan RPM speed for chassis fan, CPU fan & Power supply fan.
&EZ-Boot
Simply press “ESC” to select your bootable device. No more hassle to search
the BIOS menu, change and re-start.
&PowerBIOS
Supporting a full range of overclocking setting via BIOS. Various adjustable
feature include FSB/Memory frequency tweaking.
&QuickSPDIF
On board SPDIF-out connector for quick connection to multi-channel
speakers. Not only removes cable cluttering but also delivers loss-free digital
audio to let you enjoy DVD movies and games with crystal clear sound.
