Intel® Core™2 Extreme / Core™2 Quad / Core™2 Duo CPU support

This motherboard supports Intel® LGA775 Core™ 2 Extreme / Core2 Quad/ Core2 Duo processors, which are excellent for multitasking, multimedia, and enthusiastic gamers with 1333/ 1066/ 800 MHz FSB. This motherboard also supports Intel® CPUs in the 45nm manufacturing process.

Intel® G41 Chipset

The Intel® G41 Express Chipset is designed to support dual-channel DDR2 1066 (overclocking)/800/667 architecture, 1333/1066/800 Front Side Bus (FSB), PCIe 1.1, and mutli-core CPUs. It especially includes Intel® Fast memory bandwidth and reduces the latency of the memory accesses.

Dual channel DDR3 1333 (O.C.)/1066 support

This motherboard supports DDR3 memory that features data transfer rates of 1333 (O.C.)/1066 MHz providing great performance for 3D graphics and other memory-demanding applications.

Low EMI

A special low-radiation design shields you from harmful electromagnetic exposure by eliminating 50% of radiation.

1. Radiation Deduction Design minimizes harmful electrostatic radiation output with exclusive circuit design to cancel electrical charge.

2. The Radiation Moat Design effectively blocks radiation to prevent discharge spread.

ASUS EPU

The ASUS EPU (Energy Processing Unit) provides total system power management by detecting current PC loadings and intelligently moderating power in real-time. It automatically provides the most appropriate power usage to save power and money! 

Turbo Key

ASUS Turbo Key allows you to turn the PC power button into a physical overclocking button. After the easy setup, Turbo Key can boost performances without interrupting ongoing work or games, simply through pressing the button.

ESD

Protect Your Computer with ESD Guards. Electrostatic discharge (ESD) conditions can happen while plugging or unplugging any USB peripherals-causing damage to the computer. ASUS' ESD Guards clamp the ESD voltage and shunt the majority of the ESD current away for a more reliable computing environment.

ASUS Q-Fan

ASUS Q-Fan technology intelligently and automatically adjusts CPU fan speeds according to system load and temperature, enabling users to work in a distraction-free environment with minimal noise.
