The motherboard fully supports PCI Express, the latest I/O interconnect
technology that speeds up the PCI bus. PCI Express features point-to-point
serial interconnections between devices and allows higher clockspeeds by
carrying data in packets. This high speed interface is software compatible with
existing PCI specifications. See page 1-22 for details.
64-bit CPU support 64-bit CPU support 64-bit CPU support 64-bit CPU support 64-bit CPU support
The motherboard supports 64-bit processors that provides
high-performance computing and faster memory access required for
memory and data intensive applications.
Serial ATA technology Serial ATA technology Serial ATA technology Serial ATA technology Serial ATA technology
The motherboard supports the Serial ATA technology through the Serial ATA
interfaces and the Intel
® ICH7 DH chipset. The SATA specification allows for
thinner, more flexible cables with lower pin count, reduced voltage
requirement, and up to 300 MB/s data transfer rate.

The onboard Realtek ® ALC882 8-channel high-definition audio CODEC
provides 192 KHz/ 24-bit audio output, jack-sensing and restasking
functions. With the 8-channel audio ports and S/PDIF interfaces, you can
connect your computer to home theater decoders to produce crystal-clear
digital audio.

The motherboard supports the S/PDIF Out function through the S/PDIF
interfaces at midboard. The S/PDIF technology turns your computer into a
high-end entertainment system with digital connectivity to powerful audio and
speaker systems. See page 1-31 for details.
Temperature, fan, and voltage monitoring Temperature, fan, and voltage monitoring Temperature, fan, and voltage monitoring Temperature, fan, and voltage monitoring Temperature, fan, and voltage monitoring
The CPU temperature is monitored by the ASIC (integrated in the Winbond
Super I/O) to prevent overheating and damage. The system fan rotations
per minute (RPM) is monitored for timely failure detection. The ASIC
monitors the voltage levels to ensure stable supply of current for critical
components. See pages 2-32 and 2-33 for details.
