ASUS Striker Extreme 1-3
DDR2 memory support
The motherboard supports DDR2 memory that features data transfer rates
of 800/667/533 MHz to meet the higher bandwidth requirements of the latest
3D graphics, multimedia, and Internet applications. The dual-channel DDR2
architecture doubles the bandwidth of your system memory to boost system
performance, eliminating bottlenecks with peak bandwidths of up to 12.8 GB/s.
See page 2-15 for details.
Serial ATA I/II technology and SATA-On-The-Go
The motherboard fully supports the Serial ATA II 3.0 Gb/s technology through the
Serial ATA interfaces and the NVIDIA
®
nForce
®
680i SLI™ chipset. The Serial
ATA 3.0 Gb/s specication provides twice the bandwidth of the current Serial ATA
products with a host of new features, including Native Command Queueing (NCQ),
and Power Management (PM) Implementation Algorithm. Serial ATA allows for
thinner, more exible cables with lower pin count and reduced voltage required.
See page 2-27 for details.
Leveraging these Serial ATA 3.0 Gb/s features is the SATA-On-The-Go. Supported
by the Silicon Image
®
3132 Serial ATA controller are two external Serial ATA 3.0
Gb/s ports on the rear panel that provide smart setup and hot-plug function. See

®
nForce
®
680i SLI™ chipset allows RAID 0, RAID 1, RAID 0+1, RAID 5, and JBOD
congurations for six SATA 3.0 Gb/s connectors. See pages 2-30 and 5-27 for
details.
The Silicon Image
®
3132 controller supports two additional external Serial ATA
3.0 Gb/s ports on the rear panel and allows RAID 0, RAID 1, and JBOD
congurations through port multiplier functions. See page 5-34 for details.
IEEE 1394a support
The IEEE 1394a interface provides high speed digital interface for audio/video
appliances such as digital television, digital video camcorders, storage peripherals
& other PC portable devices. See pages 2-25 and 2-29 for details.
