• Intel® Trusted Platform Module 1.2:
Integrated as part of the chipset; customer may choose to replace the discrete TPM with
Intel® TPM providing a higher level of integration and simplifying board layouts.
Dual-channel DDR3 memory support
Dual-channel DDR3 delivers up to 17 GB/s (DDR3 1066 dual 8.5 GB/s) of bandwidth
and 16 GB maximum supported memory size for faster system responsiveness and
support of 64-bit computing.
5.1+2-CH high definition audio
The onboard Realtek® ALC888 5.1+2-CH high-definition audio CODEC provides 192
KHz/ 24‑bit audio output, jack-sensing and re-stacking functions. With the 8‑channel
audio ports and S/PDIF interfaces, you can connect your computer to home theater
decoders to produce crystal‑clear digital audio.
Serial ATA technology
The motherboard supports the Serial ATA technology through the Serial ATA interfaces.
The SATA specification allows for thinner, more flexible cables with lower pin count,
reduced voltage requirement, and up to 300 MB/s data transfer rate.
Temperature, fan, and voltage monitoring
The CPU temperature is monitored by the ASIC (integrated in the Winbond Super I/O) to
prevent overheating and damage. The system fan rotations per minute (RPM) is
monitored for timely failure detection. The ASIC monitors the voltage levels to ensure
stable supply of current for critical components.
