1-4 Chapter 1: Product introduction
USB 2.0 technology
The motherboard implements the Universal Serial Bus (USB) 2.0 specication,
dramatically increasing the connection speed from the 12 Mbps bandwidth on USB
1.1 to a fast 480 Mbps on USB 2.0. USB 2.0 is backward compatible with USB 1.1.
Temperature, fan, and voltage monitoring
The CPU temperature is monitored by the W83793G chip to prevent overheating
and damage. The system fan rotations per minute (RPM) is monitored for timely
failure detection. The chip monitors the voltage levels to ensure stable supply of
current for critical components.

IOAT is a system-wide solution that increases CPU efciency and delivers
data to/from applications faster than current server platforms.
All High-quality Conductive Polymer Capacitors
This motherboard uses all high-quality conductive polymer capacitors onboard for
durability, improved lifespan, and enhanced thermal capacity.
90% + Power Efciency
Compared with the non-green design platform, ASUS's new green motherboard
design helps improve power efciency to 90%. The motherboard, with less power
comsumption loss, saves you more watts and more money.
1.4.2 Innovative ASUS features
ASUS Smart Fan technology
The ASUS Smart Fan technology smartly adjusts the fan speeds according to the
system loading to ensure quiet, cool, and efcient operation.
