Extreme Memory Profile:
- Intel certified high speed memory technology.
- Enables users to take advantage of the fastest DDR3 memory. (over DDR3-1600)
- Provide a mechanism for end users to easily tune performance.
Green Power Design:
- With 4-phase PWM IC, dual channel PWM design and Hi-c CAP, which lead to better power converting, reducing noise and expand the lifespan and stability.
- Hi-c CAP can bring 100x faster electrical conductivity than solid acpacitor and less power loss. PWM brings more power efficiency, thus lower the real power spend.
ATI CrossFireX:
- Equip with 2 or more PCIe x16 slots, ATI CrossFire Ready.
- The ultimate multi-GPU performance gaming platform.
- Provides 2.7x faster performance than single graphic card solution.
TroubleShoot Poster:
- 4 LED Matrix to show boot up status.
- Directly showing the problem part, NOT debug code.
- Easy to find out the error of the parts while debugging.
User Friendly:
- Functions designed with button to be easy use.
- Help power-users tweaking process in-chasis enviornment
- Onboard SATA ports are stacked on the mainboard to avoid mechanical issue with giant graphic cards like 8800 Ultra.

Notes: (1) How to install? Click here.
(2) All retail boxed motherboards are opened for receiving purposes.
(3) We highly recommendtesting when purchasing a motherboard and a CPU together. (4) *eSATA function would be fully supported by VISTA ( In Box driver with AHCI driver). eSATA function would not be fully supported without AHCI driver under WinXP.
