PCI Express Architecture
PCI Express is the latest I/O interconnect technology that will replace the existing PCI. With a bus bandwidth 4 times
higher than that of AGP 8X interface, PCI Express x16 bus performs much better than AGP 8X in applications such as 3D
gaming. PCI Express x1 also outperforms PCI interface with its exceptional high bandwidth up to 500MB/s. The high
speed PCI Express interface creates new usages on desktop PCs e.g., Gigabit LAN, 1394b, and high-speed RAID systems.
AI NOS
Applications such as 3D games and video editing demand a huge chunk of system resource.
Inject ""nitrous oxide"" into your CPU! The patented AI NOS? (Non-delay Overclocking System) technology intelligently
detects system load and automatically boosts performance for the most demanding tasks. Unlike other dynamic
overclocking
Fanless Design
Cooling fans, though a popular thermal solution, also come with noise and malfunction likelihood. ASUS Motherboard's
fanless concept is specifically created to provide a cool environment without all the baggage. ASUS has devoted
special efforts to address the thermal issues across the motherboard, and most notably the areas that reside the CPU,
power, Northbridge and Southbridge. The heat sinks and strategic board layout are tailor made to dissipate heat in the
most efficient manner. With the addition of Stack Cool 2, users can even overclock without a noisy, bulky fan. g
techniques, AI NOS reacts much faster to satisfy your unending need for speeds .
PEG Link
This latest technology, PEG (PCI Express Graphics) Link Mode, is a unique feature that enables users to boost graphics
card performance for superior video quality.PEG Link allows users to raise GPU and VGA memory throughput via the
motherboard BIOS the same way system bus and memory bus are tweaked. PEG Link Mode enables powerful video
performance on DX8 and DX9 applications. ASUS engineers carefully fine-tuned the parameters for every single
PCI-Express card to provide system stability during high-speed graphics operation.
Precision Tweaker
Precision Tweaker is designed for serious overclockers. It offers ways to raise system performance inch-by-inch and
step-by-step to achieve maximum performance! This is about getting the most out of your machine, and taking pride in
your customized computer. Precision Tweaker provides overclocking options for all major parts of the system: CPU,
Memory, PCI-Express, and Front Side Bus.
ASUS CPU Lock Free
The P5LD2 offers the CPU Lock Free feature, which allows you to adjust CPU multiplier to 14x. The reduction of
