For
high
frequency
operation,
especially
when
overclocking, layout is the most important factor to
make sure both chipset and CPU are working in stable
condition. The layout of this motherboard implements
AOpen's unique design called "Frequency Isolation
Wall". Separating each critical portion of motherboard
into regions, where each region operates in a same or
similar frequency range, we can avoid cross talk and
frequency
interference
between
each
region's
operations and condition. The trace length and route
must be calculated carefully. For example, the clock
trace must be equal to length (not necessarily as short
as possible) so that clock skew will be controlled

within few a pico second (1/10
Sec)
