Introduction
CPU Overheat Protection
CPU Overheat Protection has the capability of monitoring the CPU's
temperature during system boot up. Once the CPU's temperature
exceeded the temperature limit pre-defined by the CPU, the system
will automatically shutdown. This preventive measure has been added
to protect the CPU from damage and insure a safe computing
environment.
DDR2
DDR2 is a higher performance DDR technology whose data transfer
rate delivers bandwidth of 4.3 GB per second and beyond. That is
twice the speed of the conventional DDR without increasing its
power consumption. DDR2 SDRAM modules work at 1.8V supply
compared to 2.6V memory voltage for DDR modules. DDR2 also
incorporates new innovations such as the On-Die Termination (ODT)
as well as larger 4-bit pre-fetch against DDR which fetches 2 bits
per clock cycle.
CMOS Reloaded
CMOS Reloaded is a technology that allows storing multiple user-
defined BIOS settings by using the BIOS utility to save, load and
name the settings. This is especially useful to overclockers who
require saving a variety of overclocked settings and being able to
conveniently switch between these settings simultaneously.
Karajan Audio Card
The Karajan audio add-in card at the rear I/O panel supports 8-
channel audio output via the audio jacks on the card.
S/PDIF
S/PDIF is a standard audio file transfer format that transfers digital
audio signals to a device without having to be converted first to an
analog format. This prevents the quality of the audio signal from
degrading whenever it is converted to analog. S/PDIF is usually
found on digital audio equipment such as a DAT machine or audio
processing device. The S/PDIF connector on the system board sends
surround sound and 3D audio signal outputs to amplifiers and
speakers and to digital recording devices like CD recorders.
