bandwidth which is over 3.5 times than 32-bit PCI at 133Mbye/sec; the motherboards are designed of 
tackling the profuse multimedia requirements nowadays) 

Embedded USB controller as well as capability of expanding to 10 of USB2.0 functional ports 
delivering 480Mb/s bandwidth and rich connectivity, these motherboards meet the future USB 
demands which are also equipped with hardware monitor function on system to monitor and protect 
your system and maintain your non-stop business computing.     

Some special features---

CPU Thermal Throttling/ CPU Vcore 7-shift / CPU Smart Fan / Optional 

DeBug Port (Only for CrossFire Tech. Supported Edition ) / Optional BIOS BACK Function (Only 
for CrossFire Tech. Supported Edition ) 

in this motherboard are designed for power user to use the 

over-clocking function in more flexible ways. But please be caution that the over-clocking maybe 
cause the fails in system reliabilities. This motherboard provides the guaranteed performance and 
meets the demands of the next generation computing. But if you insist to gain more system 
performance with variety possibilities of the components you choose, please be careful and make sure 
to read the detailed descriptions of these value added product features, please get them in the coming 
section.   

 

1-1.1   Special Features of Motherboard 

 
Debug Port (Option)

--- ( The Professional Hardware Diagnosis System ) 

Being bugged of abnormal system failure through the tossed and turned nights no more, the 
embedded Hardware Debug Port offers you the real-time visual system healthy for the 
demanding usage of computing. No more bugging by unknown system failure and no more 
time wasted in the first moment of 24-hour nonstop ping business computing, the embedded 
Debug Port will turn you into a well training hardware professional with the seeing system 
situation. (The Post Code please refer to the Website)

 

 

CPU Smart Fan

---( The Noise Management System )   

It’s never been a good idea to gain the performance of your system by sacrificing its acoustics. CPU 
Smart Fan Noise Management System is the answer to control the noise level needed for now-a-day’s 
high performance computing system. The system will automatically increase the fan speed when CPU 
operating loading is high, after the CPU is in normal operating condition, the system will low down 
the fan speed for the silent operating environment. The system can provide the much longer life cycle 
for both CPU and the system fans for game use and business requirements. 

 

CPU Vcore 7-Shift

--- (Shift to Higher Performance)   

The CPU voltage can be adjusted up by 7 steps for the precisely over-clocking of extra demanding 
computing performance. 

 

BIOS BACK Function (Option)

--- ( The BIOS Backup and Recovery Function ) 

With the new support for the Serial Peripheral Interface, the whole motherboard series are 
embedded with the new storage of the extra bin file for BIOS recovery. When unexpected 
error occurs, even the BIOS crashes down, you can restore your BIOS with just simply 
clicking to restart your system. The backup bin file will recover automatically within a few 
minutes.
