•North Bridge System Chipset: The Intel® 82815E Graphics Memory Controller Hub (GMCH) chipset supports 66/100/133 Front Side Bus (FSB), up to 512MB of PC100/PC133 SDRAM, and AGP 4X interface which delivers twice the amount of data than the current AGP standard.

•South Bridge System Chipset: The Intel® 82801BA I/O Controller Hub (ICH2) delivers twice the I/O bandwidth, and supports UltraDMA/100, allowing burst mode data transfer rates of up to 100MB/sec. Two USB controllers provides four USB ports.

•Intel® Accelerated Hub Architecture: Features a dedicated high speed hub link between the ICH2 and GMCH with a bandwidth of 266MB/sec – twice the maximum bandwidth of the PCI bus.

•PC100/PC133 Memory Support: Equipped with three Dual Inline Memory Module (DIMM) sockets which support PC133/PC100 non-ECC SDRAMs (available in 64, 128, 256, 512Mb densities) up to 512MB.

•UltraDMA33/66/100 Support: Comes with an onboard PCI Bus Master IDE controller with two connectors that support four IDE devices on two channels. Supports UltraDMA/100, UltraDMA/66, UltraDMA/33, PIO Modes 3 & 4 and up to four ATAPI devices like DVD-ROM, CD-ROM, CD-R/RW, LS-120, and

tape backup drives.

• ASUS JumperFree™ Mode: Allows processor settings and easy overclocking of frequency and Vcore voltage all through BIOS setup when JumperFree™ mode is enabled. Easy-to-use DIP switches instead of jumpers are included to allow manual adjustment of the processor external frequency.

•Wake-Up Support: Supports Wake-On-LAN and Wake-On-Ring, Keyboard Wake-Up, and BIOS Wake-Up.

•Around-the-Clock Intrusion Detection: Chassis intrusion circuitry can log chassis open events into LDCM. The onboard battery supports detection even when normal power is removed and through a new design, battery drain is even lower than the RTC used for keeping time!

•PC Health Monitoring: Provides an easy way to examine and manage system status information, such as CPU and system voltages, temperatures, and fan status through the onboard hardware ASUS ASIC and the bundled ASUS PC Probe or Intel LDCM software.
