Network iControl
With a one-click on/off button, the software currently in use is set as top priority over all
other network programs, dominating the network bandwidth with ease. Moreover, you
can prioritize your favorite software easily by conguring proles through the intutive user
interface. Within the prole, programs can be pre-scheduled to run at a specic time period
to avoid network clogging and long-waits on downloads. Auto PPPoE network connection
gives a one-step setup and an intuitive network bandwidth control center.
ASUS Anti-Surge Protection
This special design prevents expensive devices and the motherboard from damage
caused by power surges from switching power supply (PSU).
C.P.R. (CPU Parameter Recall)
The BIOS C.P.R. feature automatically restores CPU default settings when the system
crashes due to overclocking failure. C.P.R. eliminates the need to open the system
chassis and clear the RTC data. Simply shut down and reboot the system, and the BIOS
automatically restores the CPU parameters to their default settings.
ErP ready
This motherboard is European Union´s Energy-related Products (ErP) ready, and ErP
requires products to meet certain energy efciency requirements with regard to energy
consumption. This is in line with ASUS’ vision of creating environment-friendly and
energy-efcient products through product design and innovation aimed at reducing carbon
footprint and mitigating environmental impact.
