1.3.2ASUS AI Proactive features

AI NOS™ (Non-Delay Overclocking System)

ASUS Non-delay Overclocking System™ (NOS) is a technology that auto-detects the CPU loading and dynamically overclocks the CPU speed only when needed. See page 3-22 for details.

AI NET2

AI NET2 is a BIOS-based diagnostic tool that detects and reports Ethernet cable faults and shorts. With this utility, you can easily monitor the condition of the Ethernet cable connected to the LAN (RJ-45) port. During the bootup process, AI NET2 immediately diagnoses the LAN cable and reports shorts and faults up to 100 meters at 1 meter accuracy. See pages 3-23 and 4-10 for details.

1.3.3Innovative ASUS features

ASUS Hyper Path 2 technology

The ASUS Hyper Path 2 technology optimizes the full potential of the Intel® chipset by shortening the latency time between the CPU and the system memory. Enabling Hyper Path 2 on systems with the Intel® PAT improves memory performance without affecting system stability. See the Appendix for details.

Native DDR2-711/600 support

This motherboard offers native DDR2-711/600 memory support to ensure superior system performance. With current processors supporting 1066/800 MHz FSB, DDR2-711/600 provides the fastest solution for eliminating system bottlenecks when running system-intensive applications. See pages 2-14 to 2-15, and 3-20 to 3-21 for details.
