2.1.2 Performance
• ACPI Ready: Advanced Configuration Power Interface (ACPI) provides more
Energy Saving Features for operating systems that support OS Direct Power
Management (OSPM) functionality. With these features employed in the OS,
PCs can be ready around the clock but comply with energy saving standards. To
fully utilize the ACPI benefits, use an ACPI-supported OS such as Windows 98.
• PC’99 Compliant: Both the BIOS and hardware levels of ASUS smart series
motherboards are PC’99 compliant. The new PC’99 requirements for systems
and components are based on the following high-level goals: Support for Plug-
n-Play compatibility and power management for configuring and managing all
system components, and 32-bit device drivers and installation procedures for
Windows95/98/NT . Color-coded connectors and descriptive icons make
identification easy as required by PC’99.
• High-Speed Data Transfer Interface: Support for UltraDMA/100 through the
onboard IDE bus master controller triples the UltraDMA/33 burst transfer rate.
UltraDMA/100 is backward compatible with DMA/66, DMA/33, and other
existing DMA devices to save the need to upgrade current EIDE/IDE drives.
(UltraDMA/66 requires a 40-pin 80-conductor cable).
• Concurrent PCI: Concurrent PCI allows multiple PCI transfers from PCI master
busses to the memory and processor.
