Brief Introduction

Intel®Pentium®4 processors

The Pentium 4 processor is designed to deliver performance across applications

and usages where end-users can truly appreciate and experience the

performance. The Pentium 4 processor delivers this world-class performance for

consumer enthusiasts and business professional desktop PC users as well as for

entry-level workstation users.

Intel adds support for Hyper-Threading Technology to the Pentium 4 processor

family. HT Technology allows a single, physical Pentium 4 processor to function

as two logical processor for next generation multi threaded application.

For more information about all the new features the Pentium 4 delivers, check out the

Intel website at http://www.intel.com

Chipset

The board is designed with NVIDIA chipset, nForce4 SLi Intel Edition as North

Bridge and MCP04 as South Bridge, featuring performance and stability with the

most innovative technology and features, including the world’s first and only

native Gigabit Ethernet interface and hardware-optimized Firewall security solution.

For more details about the NVIDIA nForce4, please visit the NVIDIA Web site at

http://www.nvidia.com.

NVIDIA SLI

NVIDIA SLiTM technology revolutionizes PC performance by combining multiple

PCI Express GPUs in a single and scalable system! Gamers and hardcore enthusi-

asts know that dual GPUs mean increased, supercharged 3D graphics and

performance. Get unmatched PC security protection, reliable NVIDIA nForce

Storage, and more. NVIDIA nForce4 SLI MCPs set the performance bar that

other PCs can only dream of reaching

PCI-Express (PCI-E)

Next generation peripheral interface to succeed to current PCI bus for the next

decade. With smaller slot size and 250MB/sec (PCI-E*1) or 4GB/sec(PCI-E*16)

maximum transfer, PCI-Express overcomes PCI bus bottleneck.

Introduction

Page 1-3

DDR2

DDR2 ushers in the new era of DDR memory technology. DDR2 memory offers

faster speed, higher data bandwidth and lower power consumption over DDR.

Hardware Monitoring

Hardware monitoring enables you to monitor various aspects of the system opera-

tion and status. This includes CPU temperature, voltage and fan speed in RPMs.

GbE LAN

The new Gigabit Ethernet LAN allows data transmission at 1,000 megabits per

second (Mbps), which runs 10 times faster than conventional 10/100BASE-T

Ethernet LANs.

Serial ATA II

The second generation SATA interface with double the transferring speed up to

300MB/sec. It supports NCQ to provide faster reading speed for your storage

devices. Hot-plug has also become its standard function to plug/unplug

whenever you want.

SATA RAID

RAID function available on chipset’s S-ATAⅡports.

IEEE 1394 (Optional)

Supports IEEE 1394a (or Firewire) for easy connection to Video Camcorder and

external drives. The IEEE1394a specifications defines a transfer rate of up to

400Mbps.

USB2.0

A popular USB standard for plugging in peripherals with up to 480Mbps transfer

speed while maintaining backward compatibility with older USB1.1 device.

8ch

Delivers 8 channel audio to bring you the latest in audio realism from DVD

movies and games. Perfect for your home theatre system.

NVIDIA ActiveArmorTM

Enhances networks security while delivers the highest system performance by

off-loading CPU-intensive packet filtering tasks in hardware, providing users

with a PC networking environment that is both fast and secure.

Introduction

Page 1-4

NV Firewall

An unprecedented addition design for nForce product, provide high performance

& enhanced reliability of PC security solution to the users. The features would be

more advanced than many stand-alone firewalls can provide!

Special Features

&Magic Health

Reports your system hardware status for every boot-up to help detect faults

early. Monitor hardware status including CPU temperature, CPU/Memory/

Chipset voltage, fan RPM speed for chassis fan, CPU fan & Power supply fan.

&EZ-Boot

Simply press “ESC” to select your bootable device. No more hassle to search

the BIOS menu, change and re-start.

&PowerBIOS

Supporting a full range of overclocking setting via BIOS. Various adjustable

feature include FSB/Chipset/Memory voltage tweaking.

&Post Port

An onboard LED-display trouble-shooting device, facilitating user to detect

boot-up problems.

&QuickSPDIF

On board SPDIF-out connector for quick connection to multi-channel

speakers. Not only removes cable cluttering but also delivers loss-free digital

audio to let you enjoy DVD movies and games with crystal clear sound.

&EZ-Button

A handy power-on button located onboard to turn on/off the system easily,

especially while debugging or testing the system.
