ATI Graphics Controller

The X7DBU features an integrated ATI video controller based on the ES1000 graph-

ics chip. The ES1000 was designed speciﬁ cally for servers, featuring low power

consumption, high reliability and superior longevity.

Other Features

Other onboard features that promote system health include onboard voltage moni-

tors, a chassis intrusion header, auto-switching voltage regulators, chassis and CPU

overheat sensors, virus protection and BIOS rescue.
