Watch Dog ABS
Includes AOpen “Watch Dog ABS” function that can auto-reset system in 4.8 seconds when you fail the system overclocking.
1MHz Stepping CPU Frequency Adjustment
Provides “1MHz Stepping CPU Frequency Adjustment” function in the BIOS. This magic function allows you to adjust CPU FSB
frequency from 100~400MHz by 1MHz stepping adjustment, and helps your system get maximum performance.
LAN Port (for –UL and –UN series)
On the strength of Gigabit LAN controller (-UL series) or Realtek 10/100 Mbps LAN controller (-UN series) on board, this motherboard
provides 10/100 Mbps Ethernet (for –UL series, it is 10/100/1000 Mbps) for office and home use. For –U series motherboard, it does not
support LAN onboard.
Ultra DMA 33/66/100 Bus IDE
Comes with an on-board PCI Bus Master IDE controller with two connectors that support four IDE devices in two channels, supports
Ultra DMA 33/66/100, PIO Modes 3 and 4 and Bus Master IDE DMA Mode 5, and supports Enhanced IDE devices.
Serial ATA
Integrated in ICH5 that contains independent DMA operation on two ports, the SATA controllers are completely software transparent with
the IDE interface, while providing a lower pin count and higher performance. The ICH5 SATA interface supports data transfer rates up to
150MB/s.
