ASUS AI features

AI Quiet AI Quiet

AI Quiet

The ASUS AI Quiet function dynamically controls CPU speed and reduces

temperature and fan speeds, thus minimizing noise and ensuring quiet

operation. Enable ASUS Q-Fan and install an Intel

processor with Enhanced

Intel SpeedStep Technology (EIST) to use this feature.

AI NOS™ (Non-Delay Overclocking System)

ASUS Non-delay Overclocking System™ (NOS) is a technology that

auto-detects the CPU loading and dynamically overclocks the CPU speed

only when needed. See page 4-22 for details.

Precision Tweaker

This feature allows you to fine tune the CPU/memory voltage and gradually

increase the memory Front Side Bus (FSB) and PCI Express frequency at

1MHz increment to achieve maximum system performance.

AI NET 2 AI NET 2

AI NET 2

(Deluxe model only)

AI NET 2 is a BIOS-based diagnostic tool that detects and reports Ethernet

cable faults and shorts. With this utility, you can easily monitor the

condition of the Ethernet cable(s) connected to the Marvell LAN (RJ-45)

port. During the bootup process, AI NET 2 immediately diagnoses the LAN

cable and reports shorts and faults up to 100 meters at 1 meter accuracy.

See pages 2-25 and 5-11 for details.

The motherboard supports 8-channel audio through the onboard Realtek

ALC850 CODEC with 16-bit DAC, a stereo 16-bit ADC, and an AC97 2.3

compatible multi-channel audio designed for PC multimedia systems. It also

provides Jack-Sensing function, S/PDIF out support, interrupt capability and

includes the Realtek

proprietary UAJ

(Universal Audio Jack) technology.

See pages 2-24 and 5-12 for details.

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.
