Asus P5WDG2 WS PROFESSIONAL Computer Hardware User Manual


 
ASUS P5WDG2 WS Professional/P5WDG2 WS PRO/WiFi-AP 1-3
Intel
®
Memory Pipeline Technology (MPT)
The Intel
®
MPT increases system-level and standard operating performance
by optimizing memory access between CPU and system memory.
Intel
®
EM64T
The motherboard supports Intel
®
Pentium
®
4 CPUs with the Intel
®
EM64T
(Extended Memory 64 Technology). The Intel
®
EM64T feature allows your
computer to run on 64-bit operating systems and access larger amounts of
system memory for faster and more efcient computing. See the Appendix
for details.
Enhanced Intel SpeedStep
®
Technology (EIST)
The Enhanced Intel SpeedStep
®
Technology (EIST) intelligently manages
the CPU resources by automatically adjusting the CPU voltage and core
frequency depending on the CPU loading and system speed or power
requirement. See page 4-26 and the Appendix for details.
DDR2 memory support
The motherboard supports DDR2 memory, which 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 10.7 GB/s. See page 2-14 for details.
Serial ATA I/II technology
The motherboard supports the Serial ATA 3 Gb/s technology through the
Serial ATA interfaces and the Intel
®
975X Express MCH chipset. The Serial
ATA 3 Gb/s specication provides twice the bandwidth of the current
Serial ATA products with a host of new features, including Native Command
Queuing (NCQ), Power Management (PM) Implementation Algorithm, and
Hot Swap. Serial ATA allows thinner, more exible cables with lower pin
count and reduced voltage requirements. See pages 2-35 and 2-36 for
details.
